You are in a maze of houses with four tanks after you.

Steering is via the cursor keys or, if you have one, a Kempston joystick and, obviously, you have to get them before they get you

If you succeed, then another maze is set up and four more tanks take up the chase - but this time they are laying mines.

Fortunately, providing you are not a humanitarian, you can blast your way through the houses to get a clear path.

Your pursuers don't seem to be too bright, though, and I found that it was quite possible to drive straight past them without injury.

This should not deter you as they tend to hit you more often than not.

I would not class this as an exceptional game, but it is certainly very competent with clear, if not outstanding, graphics.

It also has a high score table for the top ten scores.

As a game, this one will probably give a deal of pleasure. But I feel that it would be a lot more enjoyable with the addition of different skill levels.
