About

"Polaris" is a shooting game released by Taito in 1980. Take command of a submarine and battle advancing enemy forces using missiles that can only be fired directly upward. Navigate through a relentless onslaught from all directions—bombers in the sky, frigates patrolling the surface, and mines lurking on the seabed!
