Iron Tank: The Invasion of Normandy is a top-down, run 'n' gun game that's exclusive to the NES.
+ The ability to select which weapons to use at any time gives you lots of freedom in how you tackle each section.
+ The game makes a decent attempt at adding depth to its gameplay through rescuing hostages and frequent storytelling.
- The controls are incredibly clunky and trying to aim your turret is infuriating due to the lack of a rotary stick / second d-pad.
- It would have been better if your explosives fired in the same direction as your movements, as seen in Jackal (1988, NES).
- Many hits seem unavoidable and enemies usually far outnumber you, have quicker movements and faster bullets.
- Constant beeping sound from incoming calls is distracting and takes you out of the flow.
