Raid Over Moscow by Access Software C64 Unboxing and Gameplay (1984) - Geek With Social Skills

In this video I do a unboxing, then a complete game play and walk through of Raid Over Moscow, the ultimate global thermonuclear war game for the Commodore 64 computer.

Raid Over Moscow was developed and published in 1984 by Access Software for the C64 and was written by Bruce Carver who also wrote Beach-Head (1983).

Released during the "Regan years" aka Cold War era, Raid Over Moscow is an action game in which the player has to stop three Soviet nuclear attacks on North America, then fight his (or her) way into and destroy a nuclear facility located in Moscow's Kremlin.

There are 7 sections of Raid Over Moscow that need to be completed to win the game:

Sequence 1: Strategic Air Command Headquarters (SAC) Sequence 2: Defense Tactics Sequence 3: Attack Run Sequence 4: Missile Silos Sequence 5: Soviet Defense Center Sequence 6: Inside the Reactor Room Sequence 7: The Final Chapter

This video capture was done using my Ultimate 64 Elite by Gideon. Enjoy!
