Rocket Ranger was first released by Cinemaware on the Commodore Amiga, with later versions appearing on the C64, PC, Apple IIgs, Nintendo Entertainment System, Atari ST and even the obscure Fujitsu FM Towns! To commemorate the return of Rocket Ranger, the original Amiga and PC-DOS versions are also now available on GOG!

The original game took its inspiration from 1930s sci-fi TV serials and comic books, setting the player in a world where the Nazis and Axis Powers won World War II – in the future! Using a rocket pack and futuristic technology, Rocket Ranger must travel the world and rid it of the escalating threat, complete with a strategic aspect and lots of exciting action sequences. As he pursues the Nazis in order to prevent their ultimate victory, Rocket Ranger will discover the source of their mysterious super weapons and the terrible future that awaits mankind!

Through shootouts, fist fights, dialogue with various characters, espionage and lab research, the player must pursue the goal of finding various weapons and technologies and finally build a rocket to reach the moon in order to defeat the Nazis once and for all – or at least for the time being! Rocket Ranger Reloaded will refresh the original game with a lot of exciting new twists & turns, gameplay elements and high replayability value that will make this one of the most exciting and innovative Cinemaware games to come!

Cinemaware has launched a kickstarter campaign, looking for $89,999, to finish development of Rocket Ranger Reloaded.

However, we REALLY do not want to stop there! Help us go beyond the minimum funding goal and we will further enhance the game with a much deeper plot, an expanded cast of characters, new action sequences and gameplay mechanics, multiple additional scenarios and secret locations to discover, a deeper strategic component and lots of additional futuristic gear and weapons to find which will reload Rocket Ranger to the next level!

Rocket Ranger Reloaded is not just a "remastered" version of the original, with your help we intend to go one step beyond: we will not only bring back all the original source material that made the game great back in 1988 (while enhancing several of its shortcomings), but we will also boost and expand it with tons of new content (locations, gadgets, weapons, equipment, outfits, characters, vehicles, etc.), gameplay upgrades, brand-new action and story sequences, a deeper strategic component and several new characters that will come together to greatly increase the replayability and help fulfill the great vision of this unique game!

Among the original gameplay elements that will come back are:

• Dogfighting sequences against a larger variety of enemies and scenarios!
• Exciting shoot-outs at secret, expanded Nazi locations!
• Boxing punch-outs against multiple enemy guards!
• Strategic-decision making as you deploy and manage your secret agents' moves!
