Galaxy Attack is three space adventure games in one. First you fly into space to attack a Vruggian invasion fleet homing in on Earth. After six minutes you crash land on a distant planet to make repairs, meanwhile fending off the unfriendly local robots. If you survive, into space again to track in on the enemy mothership and launch a neutron torpedo into her vitals.

On loading you a get a nice little tune and some instructions, with the use of ten keys which are also given on a keyboard cut-out printed on the insert - a useful idea. The instructions are not particularly clear, though.

Each phase is timed to six minutes, however well you are doing, and it would be nice to be able to be able to skip direct to the later ones without wading all the way through.
