Terra Force is a departure from the previous games in the series, where the main mechanic was joining ships together to form a more massive and destructive weapon. Instead, you have the ability to travel above and below ground, similar to what was done in MagMax, another game by Nichibutsu.

The above ground levels are done in a vertical format while below ground is horizontal, and you can pick which side to play through. Going below ground requires using your bomb to create a hole in the ground to enter. This means there are basically 2 paths through the game, although not all of them have bosses.

You get 3 different powerup types: weapons (red), bomb (blue), and speed (green). If you have max power (3 levels) then the powerups do different things. Blue gives you a shield, red clears the screen of enemies, green also clears the screen of enemies but gives you a 1000 point bonus for each enemy. There are also 2 "options" you can get that further increase your firepower.

The challenge level here is on the lower end, most players should be able to clear this game without too many problems, especially since you get a shield that can take multiple hits and can also rack up a ton of extends. Also, the above ground areas in general seem to be much easier than below ground, perhaps a nod to MagMax which had a similar thing going on.

Scoring is fairly simple, basically just blow everything up. The main issue will be that picking different paths will yield vastly different scores since some areas do not have bosses and thus much lower score potential. The game does not loop so once you take out the final boss it's over.

Overall Terra Force is a decent game with some fairly nice graphics for the time, but it doesn't really do much to make it stand out today. That said, if you are hunting easy clears, this game is a must play.
