Gameplay

Storm is controlled by the player during all phases of warfare. The player's goal is to advance through each level while gathering weapons and ammo in order to survive long enough and have enough ammo to face off against the boss at the end of each level. The storyline progresses at the beginning of each stage as Storm's communications officer, Jessica, informs him of his next mission.

Players can hold up to two firearms, which they can switch between, and can also hold a certain amount of hand grenades.

Story

The story begins when several sectors of a military group report being attacked by their own war machines. A terrorist organization led by a man named Rattlesnake is assumed to be responsible. A commando and vehicle specialist code-named Storm is assigned to enter each affected area and progressively stop Rattlesnake's ambitions.

Reception

Commando: Steel Disaster received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.
