Dragon Trek (Salamander)

Dragon Trek is the best version of our old favourite, 'Star Trek'. The game comes complete with a 16 page flight manual which tells you everything you need to know. The game is in real time and if you spend too long deciding on your next move you will probably have no ship left.

The basic idea of the game is to warp around three sizes of galaxy to destroy as many Klingons as possible. You have a choice of moving by the joystick or using the warp facility. To destroy the Klingons you can use three types of phaser, or a photon torpedo which are controlled by the joystick.

The game does not use too many intergalactic sound effects but does make up for these with extremely good graphics. So 'Beam me up Scotty'.
