This is a sort of sophisticated Lunar Lander, though as the landing process is all done by instruments, it could be more aptly described as a spaceship landing simulator.

The overall effect is very convincing, colour is unobtrusive but effective, and the sounds (which you can switch off) are realistic.

Landing safely is no easy feat - you really have to watch all the gauges and keep a balance to avoid being burned up on entry. I never managed to land at all, and would have liked some sort of variable difficulty level or practice option.

The program loads in three blocks, and after loading the first I had all the signs of a crash on my hands. After several attempts I just let it continue, and it loaded the second block - a screen picture, then the game!
