Contra

Konami's 1987 run-and-gun classic, famous for its two-player co-op and the secret code for 30 lives.

Commandos Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are sent to a jungle island where an alien force called Red Falcon is building a base. Two soldiers against an army, and something far worse inside.

Sold on Steam as part of the Contra Anniversary Collection.
