Quintic Warrior is one of four new games brought out by major software producer Quicksilva. And if this game is anything to go by Quicksilva may yet again make a quick kill in the software market.

You are a Quintic Warrior in the seemingly impermeable Dome City patrolling, when your computerised defence system rather unfortunately decides to backfire - just as some deadly aliens, the Zoranian Mutants, are arriving in large numbers. So, not only are you fighting the Zoranian Mutants with their deadly 'Zead Rammer' but your own highly sophisticated main defence as well. However, you have one advantage - the Quintic Factor - a combination of many qualities needed to become a Quintic Warrior. So with these attributes you set out to save your people and the Dome City.

This game is played with Joystick only and if pulled back will select up to 21 playing levels. You start with three lives and one is added after each level is completed {no mean featl). If you are hit by a Zed Bolt or a Lazer Snare you lose one life, if you get caught by a Mutant you sustain damage of 1/10 of a life and if a Mutant reaches the top of the screen the game is over.

Quicksilva describe this an an 'Arcade mega game' which is not far from the truth. It has the ingredients of originality, addictivity, and playability which should make it a hit, deservedly.
