About this game

In Convoy Raider, you play as a battleship captain patrolling an inner sea during wartime. Your objectives are to detect and destroy enemy aircraft, missiles, ships, and submarines while managing your vessel’s movement and condition.

Command and Detection

The main screen provides three specialized radars for tracking aircraft, ships, and submarines, along with map and status displays. The maps show the wider area and a closer view of your position, where you can steer the ship and adjust its speed. Enemy forces appear as black dots, while detected targets appear as white dots on the appropriate radar.

Your ship’s status screen displays damage in red. If the entire ship turns red, the game ends.

Defensive Mini-Games

  • Aircraft and missile attacks: Control a gun from a first-person perspective, moving it horizontally and vertically to shoot down attacking planes before they drop bombs. This view is also used against missiles.
  • Convoy attacks: Fire a missile at an attacking convoy by aligning a moving sight before the countdown ends. A red sight indicates a successful hit; otherwise, the shot misses.
  • Submarine attacks: Control a helicopter in a side-view scene above and below the water. Move the helicopter around the screen and use the depth indicator to determine where a dropped depth charge will explode.
