Action-packed Beat 'em up Game Target: Renegade for ZX Spectrum

Target: Renegade is a classic beat 'em up game released in 1988. Set in the gritty city of Scumville, players must navigate through five increasingly difficult environments, each with its unique set of villains. The game begins in a multi-storey car park where players face a gang of motorcyclists. These foes attempt to run the player over or strike with weapons, requiring strategic kicking to dismount them.

The second scene takes place on a seedy street at night, where players encounter 'ladies of the night' and their boss, who is armed with a gun. The challenge is to evade bullets until the boss runs out of ammunition, allowing for a direct confrontation. This setting adds a layer of complexity with its varied enemy tactics.

In the third scene, players find themselves in a park, battling aggressive skinheads. The only way forward is through pure combat, utilizing punches, kicks, and any weapons found on the ground. This stage emphasizes the raw physicality of the gameplay, requiring players to fight their way through to the next level.

The final two scenes are set in a shopping mall and a bar, where players face the Beasty Boys and Mr. Big's bodyguards, respectively. The mall introduces canine companions to the enemy roster, while the bar is the last hurdle before confronting Mr. Big himself. Each level is designed to test the player's combat skills and strategic thinking.
