Isolated Warrior, known in Japan as Max Warrior: Wakusei Kaigenrei (マックスウォーリアー 惑星戒厳令, Makkusu Uōriā: Wakusei Kaigenrei (lit. "Max Warrior: Martial Law Planet")?), is a 1991 video game developed by KID and published in Japan by Vap and in North America and Europe also by Vap with NTVIC as their co-publisher for the NES. It falls in the shooter genre, although its gameplay also includes elements reminiscent of platforming, while it features isometric projection, similar to Sega's Zaxxon.
Famous quotes containing the words isolated and/or warrior:
“The improved American highway system ... isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway ... he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson’s nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“By many a legendary tale of violence and wrong, as well as by events which have passed before their eyes, these people have been taught to look upon white men with abhorrence.... I can sympathize with the spirit which prompts the Typee warrior to guard all the passes to his valley with the point of his levelled spear, and, standing upon the beach, with his back turned upon his green home, to hold at bay the intruding European.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
