Story

Story takes place in New York City as SWAT officer Kurt Wolfe, at first, was assigned to take down renewed Asian gang violence led by ethnic Korean-Americans. But later on, he and his team discover that terrorist forces are planning to pin the blame on the North Korean government for the explosion of a nuclear weapon on American soil.

Players take command of Officer Kurt Wolfe and can take two additional members to every mission.

Gameplay

Target Liberty features an isometric perspective, similar to Police Quest: SWAT 2, though the game leans toward a more arcade-like experience to better fit a handheld system.
