With Talos you take a crash course in body-building to the theme tune of "I ain't go nobody".

Battle robot Talos has been smashed into seven pieces and his metallic remains lie smouldering across the countryside.

But one hand still has some life in it. And that's the starting point for this arcade adventure where your quest is to rebuild Talos and find the Crown of Eternity.

Using the joystick or keyboard, you must control the hand and try and find the remaining six pieces of the battle robot's remains which are scattered across 200 screens.

But he must be reassembled in the correct order. For example, hand, arm, body, etc.

To complicate matters, the countryside is full of energy-draining creatures which sap Talos if they touch him. He can fight back by firing force bolts at them.

Some pieces of his body will be located underwater - which presents him with a pretty problem because he can't swim.

In his rambles around the countryside, Talos will also encounter a number of white gates which he is unable to enter unless he can find the white pearl.

Score is displayed at the top of the screen and a candle indicates Talos's strength. He can make the candle grow by collecting objects around the countryside.
