Sea Wolf II
海狼2
Sea Wolf II is an action arcade game developed by Dave Nutting Associates and released by Midway in 1978. Players control a submarine, viewing the action from above as they navigate through water and destroy enemy ships and sea creatures. The game uses a joystick for movement and firing controls. Enemies approach from multiple directions, requiring players to maneuver and shoot accurately. The game progresses through successive waves of increasing difficulty, with new enemy types and patterns appearing as players advance. The objective is to survive each wave and achieve the highest score possible.
