When this program is run, the first feature to impress is not the 3-D graphics, nor the superb sound effects promised by the insert description, but rather the fact that the joystick controls are inverted. Having solved this problem by the simple means of turning the joystick upside down I was able to face the fighter craft of the Vengorian Empire.

They rush towards your Terramobile from behind a distant range of mountains growing in size as they approach. This presumably justifies the description 3-D. You defend yourself with neutronium cannon but the enemy proves very hard to hit while five of their energy bolts will produce 100% damage to your shield with deadly consequences.

The graphics are average, not even multicolour sprites, and the sound fails to use the C64's full potential but the game is certainly fast and furious with good use of screen scrolling. A nice try but falling just a bit short of my standards.
