Triad

Back to the control seats boys - it's time to save the universe again. This time it's Triads and they are *mean*. Swooping in from the distance blazing death they grow larger and more menacing until they nearly fill the screen.

Once they're mopped up there's an asteroid storm to contend with. This has to be cleared before the transport fleet can pass through to its destination planet. Success is rewarded with promotion through the ranks, failure means a visit to that Great Space Station in the sky.

After a brief respite, barely enough time to grab a cup of synthi-caf, another fleet of Triads has to be dealt with.

The great thing about this game is the added features. Turning off the sound, Freeze Game are all there, plus several others. I liked the option of playing against more than one player; it saved a multitude of family arguments. But for real kicks try turning off the gun sights.
