Description:
A "James Bond" action/arcade game based on the movie with the same name. Your aim is to avenge the death of Felix Leiter, who was killed by the drug baron Sanchez.
Technically the game consists of several different vertical scrolling action sequences. In each stage you must fly, drive or walk through a preset terrain. While doing that, you have to shoot enemies, avoid their shots and collect items (mainly ammunition). Some levels rely more on shooting, while others test your reflexes. There are 6 levels to be completed.

The man sprites in this stage are reminiscent of those from Sensible Software's Parallax - compliment enough - and scrolling, as with every scene, is smooth. Sprites move around quickly and neatly, effects are loud and lively, and License To Kill proves itself to be a great Bond game.

Domark have released five Bond games so far, and Licence to Kill turns out to be one of their more successful efforts. Several vertically scrolling levels, based on scenes from the movie, are there to be conquered with Bond carrying out his espionage antics in the likes of speedboats, helicopters, and tanker trucks. Nice graphics and playability make Licence to Kill three quid well spent.
