3D Time Trek

This is reminiscent of Quicksilva's Timegate on the Spectrum. Your task is to rid the galaxy of marauding aliens. The game comprises a mixture of strategy and arcade action. You are in control of a super-powerful starship. The galaxy is divided into forty-nine quadrants and using the navigation computer you must jump from quadrant to quadrant wiping out aliens en route.

On arriving in an alien-infested sector it is a wise move to use the battle computer to allocate energy to the shields, check on the size of the enemy strike force and look your own ship over for any damage sustained.

The graphics, while not brilliant, are among the best I've seen on the C16. In view of the current dearth of good software for the C16/Plus 4 this is certainly worth looking at. A more reliable Turbo Load would be appreciated though, Anirog.
