How to Play Super Thunder Blade
Quick start
Pilot the attack helicopter through cities, canyons, and enemy bases while destroying both airborne and ground targets. Use the cannon on aircraft and missiles on tanks or emplacements, reduce speed before narrow obstacles, and prioritise terrain avoidance when the view changes between behind-the-craft and overhead sections. Save aggressive forward movement for clear lanes instead of flying directly into concentrated fire.
Controls
D-pad: climb, dive, move, and aim according to the current camera. A: fire the cannon at air targets. B: launch missiles at ground targets. C: change speed. Start: pause. The perspective changes between stages, but cannon and missile roles remain consistent; slow down when depth becomes difficult to judge.
