So, Hunt for Red October on SNES—it’s basically you trying to outrun the entire Soviet navy in a stolen nuclear sub. The controls are simple: move in four directions, shoot torpedoes to the right with A, and fire missiles upward with B. But here’s the thing—you’ve also got this sneaky Caterpillar drive that makes you invisible for a few seconds, and an ECM blast to wipe out incoming threats. Handy when you’re swarmed.

Your biggest worries? Running out of fuel (Power) or taking too many hits (Armor). Blow up enemy subs, and sometimes they drop upgrades to beef up your weapons. The sidescrolling action keeps you dodging depth charges and enemy fire while you make a break for the U.S. It’s tense, especially when your alarms start blaring and you’re low on everything. Not the deepest game, but it nails that submarine thriller vibe.
