Yet another excerpt from the book of the Faluvian Empire was on the inlay card... I really must get that book.

This time we have an old, familiar theme. Remember the old Space Invaders? Well, this is a game of that ilk, but with differences that make all the difference if you see what I mean.

There are five attack waves, fifteen levels of difficulty, meteor storms plus other bad goodies ... or do I mean good baddies?

You can play this game with a joystick if you have one, and I would strongly advise that you do.

This game, together with Frenzy (a sort of sister tape) will make compulsive playing for the space/action addict.
