The Mafat Conspiracy (ゴルゴ13 第二章イカロスの謎 Gorugo Sātīn Dai-Nishou Ikarosu no Nazo?, Golgo 13 Episode 2: The Riddle of Icarus) is a Nintendo Entertainment System video game released in 1990. It is the sequel to Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode. Its cover art was illustrated by Lawrence Fletcher.
A weapons satellite has been snatched out of orbit, and the world is facing nuclear destruction. Behind this act is a group of terrorists known as the Mafat Conspiracy. The terrorists plan to extort the U.S. and Soviet governments by threatening to make their satellites fall from space. The Mafat are demanding that the Soviets turn over their research on electromagnetic waves, and the American government to give them the Los Angeles, a ship that is equipped with nuclear warheads.
The CIA and KGB are blaming each other, and Golgo 13's mission is to eliminate the leader of the Mafat Revolutionary Group, destroy the Satellite Capture System, and rescue Dr. Barrows. The doctor was kidnapped from his lab in England many years ago and taken to Paris, where he remains in confinement.
The action in this game takes place on five different types of screens: horizontally scrolling action, stationary action, driving a Ferrari, maze navigating, and sniper rifle shooting. The scrolling levels pit the player against a number of enemies, including enemies armed with pistols, machine guns, scythes, boomerangs, grenades, and knives. The player will also face scorpions, and dogs. To fight the good fight, the player is armed with a gun and can pick up extra ammo along the way. The player can also kick his enemies.
