During the missions, the player must beware anti-aircraft guns, missile launchers and tanks, outmaneuvering enemy fire or destroying the enemy weaponry.
The Apache is destroyed if its fuel runs out, or if the armor (functioning as health) is completely depleted.
However, armor can be replenished by bringing back MIA soldiers and prisoners of war back to the landing zone.
There are also fuel, ammo and armor pickups available on the field.
About Atari Lynx
Atari's Lynx (1989) was the first handheld console with a color backlit screen, technically ahead of the Game Boy in several respects, but it launched at a higher price with worse battery life and lost the handheld war commercially. Lower overall sales mean smaller print runs across its library, making complete Lynx games a moderately scarce niche within retro handheld collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Desert Strike: Return to the Gulf for Atari Lynx with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
