About Metal Clash (Japan)
Piloting the metariod Saiber, players engage in close-quarters combat against waves of alien robots using punches and kicks. Destroying flying saucers provides life energy boosts, while breaking background items increases the player's score. After clearing a set number of enemies, a powerful boss emerges to challenge the player's combat skills.
Player layout in our catalog: 2P sim.
