Starship Command

Starship Command is a 'Star-Trek' type game with a difference. It is also a full graphics game in which you have to pilot a succession of spaceships through space in order to obtain points.

You collect points by killing enemy ships which hover around you menacingly. The game is one of the best 'non-arcade' style games that Acornsoft produce, and is well worth buying, as the graphics, speed and on-screen presentation are very near perfect.

The only drawback (there has to be one!) is that there are more controls than you have fingers.
