Vertigo Ahmad Amireh Pixy Entertainment www Vertigo is a hardcore arcade game that tests your reflexes. <p>You are a probe equipped with 2 shields to protect from fire and ice drones, but only 1 shield is active at a time. You will engage zones, each of which might have a different game mode and different objectives, and you'll be briefed once you're in. You have to flip shields in time to protect yourself, and you can possibly move left and right to avoid some drones. It's a pure reflex game and a brain teaser. arcade free img on on off on off off 2011-04-24 4 2011-04-25 08:51:01 36133 www Decent nVidia / ATI GPU and drivers. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 on
