Tac/Scan (夕ック/スキャン) is a space combat shooter released as an arcade video game in 1982.[1] It was developed by Sega Electronics[2] (formerly Gremlin Industries) and published by Sega.[3] An Atari 2600 version was released in 1983.
The game uses 3D vector graphics[1] that switch between overhead and third-person perspectives.[4] The player commands seven units in squadron formation through waves of attacking enemies; the player can gain reserve units, while being able to command the units to perform various actions, including firing at enemies, getting into formation, or a "tac" maneuver.[3][4]
Tac/Scan is an unlockable game in the PlayStation 2 version of Sega Genesis Collection.[2]
