Orion

The constellation of Orion is in danger of destruction. The stars have become unstable and the whole formation is distorting; the only way to save it is to regress the chemical balance.

This is done by visiting mining colonies and taking the required chemicals. Unfortunately, the mines are controlled by alien forces, so you - as the hero of this mission - must sneak in and take them by force.

What on earth is happening to Graftgold? Once upon a microchip, they were the name for quality computer games; now they seem to have become content to produce any old rubbish. The bad thing is that Orion will probably sell just because of the Graftgold name. Well, here's your last warning: Don't buy it!
