Damocles Mission Disk

Groovy 3D worlds, lots of planets and a galloping plot were what made Damocles so popular. Your original mission was to save the planet Eris from death by large comet. Now Paul Woakes, the author, has designed five add-on missions to satisfy all the avid Damocles fans crying out for a bit more excitement.

There are five missions on this disk, each with a different angle, depending on how you played Damocles originally. In mission one, Sabotage, you're upstaged by Professor Hantzen, who's already planted the Novagen bomb. Can you swing things in your favour? Mission two is Bad Luck. You've stopped off on another planet before reaching Eris and have consequently lost all your money and your ship gambling. Can you still save the day?

Mission three, Go For Gold, sees another mercenary upstaging you and flogging the nova triggers at trading posts. In mission four the comet Damocles hasn't blown up and you've got to attach more explosive to it. In the last mission your demanding task is to join the Mystical Order of Carpenters by earning loads of dosh (no, really).

Fans of the original are sure to love these missions. At ten quid you're getting five whole new games to beat. What more do you want?!
