Guess the Game

[MetalSoup]

Guys, help me remember the name of a game, please. Think of it as a "guess the game" round without a screenshot

It's an action game (shooting, punching etc) that came out in the late 80s.
You were an undercover agent that had to bust drug smuggling rings, one after the other.
Each round had a different ring to bust with more difficult (or just more) enemies, but the environments (aka backdrops) stayed the same for each round.
I think there was only four or five "screens" in the game and I think one of them was an alley.

Any idea?

Top down? Side scrolling? Isometric?

Top down? Side scrolling? Isometric?

No scrolling. Each scene was set and when you exited, the game loaded the next scene. Not sure if the POV was isometric or bang on side, but wasn't top-down.

One of the early rings you had to bust was a nicotine smuggling ring.

L.A Crackdown?

Nope. This was just action, not much of a story or adventure involved.

We`re talking about gamers here...boobs doesn't necessarily imply gender

Valid point, let's assume we mean the gender ones
