Judge Dredd (ジャッジ・ドレッド) is a 1995 video game by Probe Software and Acclaim based on the 1995 Judge Dredd film. The game was released for the SNES, Sega Mega Drive, and Sega Game Gear.

Gameplay

The game is a typical run-and-gun game. A/2 shoots (with the D-pad to aim), B/1 jumps, and C/Down+1 changes your weapon.

Levels

Judge Dredd MD BlockWar.png Block War
In the first level, Block War, there are riots taken place in Heavenly Haven, a grim and filthy city. Squatters are causing trouble and it's up to Dredd to stop it! Dredd's primary objective in this level is to destroy the ammunition supplies littering the streets, and his secondary objective is to either Sentence or Arrest all Squatters causing the Block War.
Judge Dredd MD BreakoutAtAspen.png Breakout At Aspen
A vicious inmate sparks a riot at the Aspen Penal Colony, and it's up to Dredd to stop it! His mission leads him through the halls of the prison, and even underground through the Sewers. His primary objective is to lock all the Security Doors via Computer Consoles, while his Secondary Objective is to Sentence or Arrest all perps.
Judge Dredd MD ShuttleCrashInCursedEarth.png Shuttle Crash In Cursed Earth
As part of a secret plot, Judge Dredd is framed for the murder of a news man named Hammond. Because tradition allows a Chief Judge one last final ruling before retirement, Chief Judge Fargo changes Dredd's original sentence from death to life without parole in Aspen Penal Colony. While in transit to the prison, the shuttle transporting Dredd was shot down by the crazed Angel Clan. Dredd survives the crash. His primary objective is to locate Judge Fargo, and seek his wisdom. His secondary mission is to arrest or sentence all perps in the Cursed Earth.
