Apache Strike is a port of Macintosh release of this helicopter simulator.
The story of this game is placed at the back of the box art. The year is 1997, and the new World War is beginning. You are a pilot of AH-64 Apache helicopter through streets of enemy tanks and helicopters. You must defeat your enemy and your target, the Strategic Defense Computer (SDC), with your guns and rockets, to save the world from nuclear destruction.
The rest of this game is lacking of gameplay. It's boring and hard, and the only track of this game is modified version of Vultan's Theme by Queen, taken without any permission from musical band, and it's badly utilized on PC Speaker. But the true 3D engine, which is better than in C64 and MAC releases, make this game really advanced than the most game of this time.
