This game entails you controlling a maintenance man whose task it is to mend the oxygen supply system of a lunar research station called Colony 11. This is done either by walking or flying (with a jet pack) around and sealing holes in the supply lines.

The graphics are very colourful and varied but are a little slow. The gameplay is extremely hard and this detracts from an otherwise good game for the asking price.
