How to Play Cobra Command
Quick start
Move forward cautiously and fire the B-button gun and A-button missile together against approaching threats. Destroy suspicious structures to uncover hostages or underground passages. Hover low and steady so the rescue line deploys automatically, then land vertically on marked supply pads to collect upgrades. Use Select to turn around whenever a tunnel or missed objective requires backtracking.
Controls
D-pad: move the helicopter in eight directions; forward and reverse movement tilt its nose. A: fire the selected missile or secondary weapon. B: fire the selected gun. Select: turn the helicopter around. Start: open the subscreen for equipment, hostage totals, messages, score, and exit. The rescue device deploys automatically near hostages.
Cobra Command — About this game
Cobra Command puts General Power at the controls of an experimental attack helicopter during a multi-stage rescue campaign. Each mission mixes aerial combat with low-level searches for hostages, destructible structures, underground fortresses, and enemy supply depots. Landing on depot pads unlocks alternative guns, missiles, armor, engines, and rescue equipment. Horizontal movement tilts the helicopter and changes the firing angle, so successful pilots learn when to advance, reverse, hover level, or turn around.
