action

The title hero, Richard Miller, has to save the kidnapped daughter (Rachel McPherson) of the president of a fictional republic.

This also occurs in Time Crisis 2 , Time Crisis 3 and Time Crisis 4 .

The arcade version has a pedal in addition to the light gun . By holding down the pedal you can take cover and reload the weapon magazine. The PlayStation versions enable this with an additional button on the light gun, but can alternatively imitate the function of the pedal via a connected gamepad .
