Operation Secret Storm is an action-oriented NES game where players control a secret agent named George B. (potentially a caricature of United States President George H. W. Bush) as he fights the Iraqi army. The game relies on Beat 'em up style combat mechanics on a 2D plane. The character collects ammunition and grenades while travelling through Iraq and defeating stereotypical Arabic enemies.

Reception

Saddam Hussein, as he appears in this game, is ranked eighth in Electronic Gaming Monthly’s list of the top ten video game politicians. The game's superhero caricature of George H. W. Bush was ranked as one of the greatest video game Presidents by G4.
