A glimmer of hope lurking in the deep blue. 

"POLARIS" is a shooting game released by TAITO in 1980.
Take command of a submarine and battle advancing enemy forces using missiles that can only be fired directly upward.
Navigate through a relentless onslaught from all directions—bombers in the sky, frigates patrolling the surface, and mines lurking on the seabed!
