military - in Rambo's case, one warrior - could have won Vietnam, or any conflict, if "they" (who? Liberals? Jews? Jane Fonda? Freemasons and Illuminati?) hadn't sabotaged the effort. If you do scratch below the surface, you may find this overly simplistic message: The U.S. POWs still languished in enemy hands, seem tactless - if you take it seriously. Plus tie-ins with Vietnam War reality, and the melancholy legend maintained by conspiracy thinkers, that U.S. When the unstoppable Rambo (he just ignores bullets fired his way half the time) kills a whole Soviet patrol one by one, in a different camouflage disguise/gimmick one edit to the next, you remember Bugs Bunny doing stuff like that to Elmer Fudd or Daffy. Rambo : First Blood Part II is cartoonish, and in a B movie way. If you want a real Rambo experience, though, play shoot-em-ups instead.This sequel to First Blood was a bigger, dumber, and more financially successful action blockbuster that opened on a then-record number of movie screens. A good effort that's worth playing if you're curious, especially since the game is quite short. Probably a good example of the limits of interactive fiction.
The game does try to be atmospheric, but the effect is rather awkward - after all, typing "SHOOT MAN" doesn't give you nearly as much Rambo-like adrenaline rush as actually blasting the enemies in action games. That's really about it, although some puzzles do require more thought than Rambo is capable of (that's why he needs your help, I guess). Your job is to use your trusty machine gun to liberate POW's in Vietnam. And don't expect difficult puzzles- Rambo isn't known as the smartest man on earth (or even smartest monkey, for that matter). If you've seen the movie, you'll know what to expect. Well, there's nothing much to say about this game. Anyway, here we are so we might as well get on with it. Yup, it's interactive fiction based on Rambo 2, one of the last movies you would want to make a game out of, much less a text adventure.
