Legendary Wings — About this game
Legendary Wings on NES mixes vertically scrolling flight with horizontal palace battles. You fight airborne enemies with guns and strike ground targets with missiles during overhead sections. Collecting power-ups improves your weapons, eventually allowing the Firebird form. Hidden whirlpools can lead to useful bonus areas, while the giant face can pull you into a dangerous detour. Play alone or with a second player simultaneously, building firepower while avoiding enemies, bullets and crushing walls.
