There are games that will last to entertain you just for 10 minutes, you get bored after a while, even though, they are phenomenal. Precisely this kind of game is the game Paratrooper. Troops are beginning to jump from aircraft and you have only one gun to stop them. Your only advantage is a very fast and reliable mouse in your hand. Only you can prevent the invasion and shoot all the paratroopers, helicopters, and fighter jets (which are dropping bombs on you).

There are games that will last to entertain you just for 10 minutes, you get bored after a while, even though, they are phenomenal. Precisely this kind of game is the game Paratrooper. Troops are beginning to jump from aircraft and you have only one gun to stop them. Your only advantage is a very fast and reliable mouse in your hand. Only you can prevent the invasion and shoot all the paratroopers, helicopters, and fighter jets (which are dropping bombs on you). Sounds are legendary and every player knew them in the 80s.

Paratrooper is an arcade classic where your task is to control a cannon shooting down enemy air units. The artillery cannon is located in the middle of the platform on a raised pedestal, from which it carries out defensive fire against the overwhelming number of enemy airstrikes. The capabilities of the cannon are limited by the firing range to about 120 degrees, this limitation heavily burdens enemy helicopters trying to drop paratroopers so that they can land on the platform with the cannon and throw it into the air. For this action, the enemy needs the cooperation of four paratroopers, on the left or right side, three will make a living ladder, after which the fourth will climb and carry out a bombing attack. The main challenge of the game is to shoot down as many enemies as possible and thus collect as many points as possible.
