About this game

The SNES version of "The Hunt for Red October" is one of 11 games that uses the Super Scope accessory, though it is only used to play bonus stages that put the submarine in first person view, where the player has to destroy a number of enemies and projectiles. The use of the Super Scope is optional.

The Hunt Goes On! You are Captain Marko Ramius, commander of the most advanced nuclear submarine ever created - the Red October. In a desperate attempt to defect to the United States, you must evade detection from an onslaught of enemy forces, both underwater and on the surface. Danger comes at you from all sides - even from within. It's destroy or be destroyed!
