Here's the antidote to Raid Over Moscow for peace people and conservationists everywhere.

The general idea of the game is to collect radioactive seaweed from a polluted beach - avoiding mutant guards and jellyfish - and to take it to Downing Street where you must chuck it through the windows at well known members of the Cabinet who pop up at the windows.

Just to distance the game a bit from real life, the scenario for the game says that the pollution has been caused by a nasty bunch of aliens called Polytikians who have invaded earth and taken over the government, taking on the appearance of the real Cabinet ministers.

The hero of the game is Radium Rodney, who has stumbled on the awful truth and realises that the only way to stop the insane Polytikians is to bombard them with the atomic seaweed!

The evil Polytikians are easily recognisable in the "Downing Street" screen. Pick your least favourite Tory minister and chuck something at him. Very satisfying - unless of course you are a Young Conservative!

Seaside Special is a novelty game - and its lasting appeal could be limited. But if you fancy a laugh have a look at it.
