After Burner for the Sega Master System is an action-packed, arcade-style flight combat game, a port of the popular 1987 Sega arcade title. Players take control of an F-14 Tomcat jet, tasked with destroying a series of enemy fighters and ground targets through high-speed aerial battles. With a third-person perspective, players navigate the jet using a crosshair to target and shoot down foes with guns and missiles. Its fast-paced gameplay, frantic dogfights, and scaling sprite-based graphics define its signature arcade experience, cementing its place in the shoot 'em up genre.
