About

In SWIV 3D you fly/drive a helicopter, 4-wheel-drive jeep, ice buggy, or hovership through a variety of terrestrial and extraterrestrial landscapes. Several stages include garages where you switch from a ground vehicle to an air vehicle and vice-versa. Each of your vehicles carries more firepower than Quino or Campa (see Desperado), with weapons ranging from wimpy missiles to the almighty smart bomb. With over ten special weapons at your disposal, explosions and destruction are plentiful in SWIV.
