Ikari III: The Rescue aka Ikari Warriors III: The Rescue (怒III, Ikari suri) is an Arcade beat 'em up. It was ported to the NES, DOS, and C64. It is the second sequel to the original Ikari Warriors, following Victory Road. The objective is to go to the enemy hideout, rescue the President's daughter Elise, fight Crime Ghost, and destroy them. Heidern, the leader of the Ikari Warriors, is introduced in this game and later appears in the King of Fighters series. Unlike the previous two games, this game features hand-to-hand combat in addition to weapons, as well as more "life-like" character designs (as opposed to the "super deformed" versions of the characters in the first two games).
