Raid 2020 is an action-adventure game for the Nintendo Entertainment System set in a dystopian future. Players assume the role of a hero tasked with dismantling the criminal empire of the drug lord Pitbull, who commands an army of robots. The objective is to infiltrate various locations, defeat enemies, collect resources, and ultimately confront Pitbull in his high-tech lair.
The year is 2020 A.D. The evil drug kingpin Pitbull and his army of robots and brainwashed servants have crippled the law enforcement agencies of the world. You must seek out and destroy his communication and computer centers thus putting an end to his evil network of shipping and distribution. As you confront Pitbull's dealers and robotic "Cyborg" servants you will seize their drugs and money. The money will enable you to purchase the tools needed to overcome the obstacles in your path. Don't let the beauty of the streets fool you, for you are about to enter a world of laser beams, exploding mines and secret entrances. Engage your enemies as you traverse through the Pier, the Streets of Technopolis, and the Warehouse searching for clues. You will encounter more danger as you pilot a boat across the Swamp and travel through Space to an eventual confrontation with Pitbull himself in the Computer Center!
