Brain Damage is a rather weird game, similar to the 'tanks' level in the arcade game Tron.

You have to wander around many levels of mazes, shooting up many different types of alien.

The action all takes place inside the brain of the computer, from what I can work out, and, in the style of Imagine and Ultimate, there is a witty little introduction to set the scene.

For example, the first line reads: "I was just hanging around, on standby as it were; logic levels at an all time low, my printed circuit board - my keys depressed. Then you came along".

Brings tears to your eyes, doesn't it? The game itself is rather good, actually. Smooth colour graphics and effective use of sound help no end.

It took me a while to get used to the controls, my firing wasn't brilliant and I couldn't get past the third level.

This game takes some skill to play, not just another "fire like mad and you might make the twenty-seventh level" game.

P.S.
