You are a space-suited adventurer on an alien planet. First you must assemble your rocket from its component parts, and then collect fuel to power it. At the same time you are fighting off the local aliens with your Quad Photon Laser Phaser and collecting the goodies (gems, gold etc.) that you find lying around.

Having re-fuelled you head off for another planet where you proceed to slaughter the locals and plunder their valuables all over again. But after four planets your spaceship wears out, and you must build another one from scratch.

You can choose a one- or two-player game and use either keyboard or Kempston joystick. Good graphics, with many small touches that put this program well ahead of the pack.

Movement is easy to control, and the degree of difficulty such as to make this an entertaining and addictive game.
