Mission Omega

Remember the game City Bomber? The one where you have to destroy the buildings by dropping bombs one at a time. Well. Mission Omega is a version of this.

OK, so there are fuel dumps on top of some of the buildings. You can fire missiles in the direction you are moving. And there are also meteors and enemy aircraft in the air. Even with all this added no more excitement or lasting interest is offered than in the original game.

You have only two control keys, one to fire the missiles and one to drop the bomb. Your height decreases as you move across the screen taking you nearer and nearer to the top of the buildings.

It is possible to change the difficulty of the game. You can change the speed (or is it the 'jerkiness'?) at which you move, the height of the buildings, and how many enemy aircraft appear.

The only good things offered by Mission Omega are a bright and colourful picture and a low price tag.
