Thunder Blade for Sega Master System

Strap into the pilot seat of an advanced attack chopper in Thunder Blade for the Sega Master System, a hybrid 3D and top-down shooter inspired by high-octane military action. As a lone helicopter pilot, you’ll blaze through cityscapes and enemy bases, dodging incoming fire and unleashing missiles and machine gun bursts on tanks, jets, and armored convoys.
