Rescue Shot is a shooter developed and published by Namco. On one side, it differs from the famous Point Blank series. The game, in fact, looks more like Time Crisis, which doesn't rely on accuracy as much, thus letting you enjoy the fast-paced gameplay dynamic.
The game takes place on various scenarios, full of traps to avoid and dangers to overcome: from a manufacturing industry to a tube, from a Japanese market district to a country village. The main character in the game is Bow, a dog who wanders through a fairytale-esque land where all sorts of minions try to hamper his progress.
The aim of the adventure is to help Bow regain his memory after he fell off a cliff. He needs to collect all 5 dream fragments to be able to make a wish, so he can remember where he came from. Each of the 10 scenarios (grouped in 4 stages) has its unique inhabitants and boss, as well as tons of items in the background that can be shot to reveal power-ups.
