Rescue On Fractalus

Code Red! Behind Jaggi Lines, which was later called Rescue On Fractalus, is now on the Amstrad... and it's pretty hot.

For those of you who don't remember what the game is all about, you have been chosen for a mission, a daring rescue no less! Human pilots are stranded on the hostile world of Fractalus.

The Jaggis are the race which inhabit this world. To say they don't like humans would be the understatement of the year!

Rescue On Fractalus

You must rescue your pilots from the Jaggis and return them safely to the mothership.

The graphics use Fractual mathematics, so they move speedily and solidly, just as you would see it from a real space ship. The effect of flying through the mountains is incredible - it has to be seen to be believed.

The Jaggis come in all shapes and sizes, some in ships, and some on foot - and boy do they look mean in the flesh.

A great conversion, better than the C64 version. Go get it!
