Gameplay

Hoverforce is a game in which MetaCity in the future year of 2050 A.D. is locked in ongoing drug wars, presented as a hybrid of an action game and simulation game.

Reception

David M. Wilson reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "Hoverforce has its weaknesses, but the game offers players just what is promised. It is a real whiz-bang shoot-'em-up! There is enough destruction to please even the most violent player. Players who are seeking a fast-paced, challenging arcade action game are invited to join Sheriff Stone's squad of Future Narcs."

Jonathan Bell for Compute! said "Hover-Force deserves a place on the hard drives of action fans everywhere. You need only take the controls of the HoverKill, and you'll be hooked. Hunting down Alterants is a hard habit to break."
