Is it still worth playing?
Solid Snake infiltrates Zanzibar Land, a heavily defended territory in Central Asia, to rescue a kidnapped scientist and destroy the revised Metal Gear D. It is a 1990 stealth action adventure for the MSX2, set in 1999. The story deals with warfare and nuclear proliferation. The goal is to get past soldiers, cameras, infrared sensors and other surveillance without being detected. Enemy soldiers patrol across different screens of a single map, see in a 45-degree field of vision and can turn their heads to look diagonally. They also hear noise, such as a punch to a wall or an unsuppressed gunshot, and go to investigate, and walking on some surfaces makes sound as well. Sneaking past guards who listen is a test of care, and it remains one now.
