Thunderbirds

Thunderbirds is an action game in which the player controls the Thunderbirds, a series of vehicles and craft from the television series as part of International Rescue to save members of the public and defeat their arch-rival The Hood. The game requires the player to alternate between available craft to complete missions across 22 levels, each largely requiring the player to search for tools and bomb enemy targets within a time limit. Gameplay differs depending upon the craft – for instance, missions featuring Thunderbird 1 involve side-scrolling shoot ’em ups bombing enemy satellites and rescuing hostages, whilst missions featuring Thunderbird 2 involve navigating mazes from a top-down perspective. Some levels feature racing mechanics as the player races Lady Penelope’s Rolls-Royce FAB1 against a time limit or limited fuel.
