Reckless Reactor is the fourteenth mission in Metal Slug: 2nd Mission. Only Gimlet has access to this stage. Nine prisoners exist in this stage.
Mission Synopsis[]
After Gimlet finds the Rebel base, he is tasked to destroy an underground reactor hidden inside. The building follows a winding path, filled with Rebel Soldiers and Mars People. The Reactor itself has two phases. The first is shooting off the turret that randomly shoots a stream of fire, a laser ball, or an explosive bowling ball while avoiding being crushed by a pillar. The second phase has Gimlet shooting at the Reactor's red spot. A Gatling gun occasionally appears at the center of the reactor and starts shooting from both sides of its gun at a clockwise rotation.
A hidden route is placed a soon as Gimlet steps on the first elevator; a wall to his left can be blasted off to find a POW. Beyond the prisoner is a destructible floor that Gimlet can crawl through and find another POW. The door behind this POW leads to a new route.
