Retro Arcade Game of the Day – Raiden

One of the things that was cool about video games back in the early years of gaming was the ability to just enter a game and start playing. No muss, no fuss. No long intro story lines, no boring tasks to complete before it got interesting, just sit and start blasting. Great to relieve some stress in the middle of the day. 

Raiden was one of those games. The arcade version was released in 1990 and is a classic scrolling shoot em’ up game. Easy to control with only two options, shoot or bomb. Nice and simple yet loads of fun. Enjoy !
