You have been sent to one of Saturn's moons to gather data and samples of minerals much needed on the planet Earth. A simple and routine exercise until the bio-sensor detects creatures following you. Suddenly, they start to spit deadly acid balls. You have no alternative but to stop and fight. One caterpillar track on your land crawlwer has been hit so you may rotate left and right and fire.

The game is in 3D. The screen shows the latest view from inside your crawler. The turret of your gun is shown at the bottom of the screen - if this is hit, you die. As the crawler rotates the display moves in one direction or the other. When firing your photon bolt, it may be guided to hit one of the rather ferocious Luna Crabs.

Technically, the game is good; fine movement though rather jerky in the case of the crabs themselves. The overall graphics and pleasant and enjoyable to look at. It is fast whilst still being relatively easy even for the novice. Micromega have followed a very admirable policy of showing screen photos of the game on the cassette inlay so as to give you, the potential customer, a better idea of the game before buying. On the whole, the game is surprisingly easy to handle, though still a challenge after playing a while.

Though it is not up to the top professional standard of such companies as Ultimate, Crystal, etc, it is an enjoyable and surprisingly addictive game to play.
