A package consisting of three games, one arcade style and two
text-only adventure games.
The arcade game has the rather topical title of Escape the
Mugger, and you are the rather hapless victim who has to escape.
The villain is, however, extremely fleet-footed and you must
exercise a great deal of cunning in order to avoid being another
mugging statistic.
Starship Supernova is a text-only adventure, where you are
the captain of a space salvage ship which happens upon an
alien spaceship heading for a supernova and destruction. The
entire game is played against the clock and when time starts to run
out you are given visual warnings to the effect that you are nearing
the supernova.
The final game on the tape is also text-only, and places you in
as a gunfighter in the old wild west.
Different factors are given to help you decide on which action
to take and your skill will decide whether you clean up the two or
end up dead.
Three games on this tape are very well presented and I found
them entertaining and good fun to play. At the combined price of
£6.95, good value for money.
