Gameplay

The player controls the spaceship Raiga, which has the ability to rotate to attack enemies from behind.[4] Power-ups can be obtained by destroying container ships, granting new weapons such as shotgun bullets and bomb attacks, as well as upgrades to the spaceship's offense and durability. The spacecraft can also obtain an Option weapon called the Auto Guard; three types of Auto Guards were available such as the target locking Beam Rifle, the powerful Solid Shooter and the standard Blaster item.[5]

In Japan, Game Machine listed Strato Fighter as the third most successful table arcade unit of February 1991.[6]
