Don't consider Lacentra for your holidays this year! The place has been devastated by a hundred years of war and is now a radioactive wasteland. This hasn't stopped Artic from basing this 3D tank battle game there all the same.

You must fight a lone battle against tanks and flying saucers (Won't it be boring if outer space turns out to a friendly and hospitable place?). Your only weapon is a shell-blaster, and once fired, this takes time to re-load. As the struggle progresses, so your foe sets stronger forces against you.

The 3D effect is interestingly used to make objects loom large as you draw near or shrink as you beat a retreat. Long range shooting usually results in your target tantalisingly moving out of the way at the last moment. Likewise, you must avoid the fire of the enemy.

I played the game using the keyboard and found no problems with what is a fairly easy-paced game, but Sinclair or Kempston joysticks can be used.
