Licence To Kill

He's big. He's back. He's James Bond 007... and now, in a thrilling adaptation from the new movie Licence To Kill, you can take his place.

Licence To Kill is a multi-level, multi-role game - you take the controls of helicopters, boats and tankers, perform some death-defying parachute stunts and take to the seas for a spot of barefoot waterskiing. A steady aim and steady fire is needed - shoot from the hip and take out the baddies.

It's action-packed and closely follows the latest adventures of the world's best kept Secret Agent in the brand new and most exciting movie of them all.

James Bond in Licence To Kill, appearing now on a small screen near you.

The Aim Of The Game

Become James Bond in his latest adventure and destroy the evil drug smuggler Sanchez. Guide 007 as he fights it out on Cray Cay, over Miami bay and underwater on his way to the final confrontation in 18-wheeler fuel tankers. Defeat Sanchez and give Bond what he wants - revenge.

Scene 1

Part 1:
Bond and Felix Leiter swoop low in their helicopter over Cray Cay to prevent Sanchez escaping with his beautiful girlfriend. Avoid all tall buildings and shoot out the gun emplacements as you gun down his jeep. Remember - the faster you go, the lower you go!

Part 2:
Bond leaps into action and sets off on foot to catch Sanchez. Watch out - many of Sanchez' henchmen have been deployed to ambush you. Duck and shoot your way through while collecting extra magazines. Watch out for the oil barrels as they explode after four direct hits. Can you make it back to Felix in the waiting helicopter? Your wits and your 15-shot Beretta can make the difference!

Part 3:
Bond is lowered by rope from the helicopter as Sanchez attempts to escape to Cuba in his aircraft. Guide 007 onto the back of the dodging plane and attack the tow rope. Remember Felix can't guide the pilot if you are in clouds and time is running out! Position Bond directly over the tail of the plane and press the fire button to "lock-on" - it's not as easy as it sounds.

Scene 2

Part 1:
007 dives into the thick of it as he interrupts a 'Drop' by the drugs' smugglers. They set off in hot pursuit and Bond must swim for his life as diver are launched against him. Swimming underwater stops the boats from firing, but what about the divers? Destroy the drug caches for a bonus. Armed only with a knife, can you hold out until the 'Drop' plane arrives?

Part 2:
Harpoon the seaplane's pontoons and you're off in a high speed chase as you waterski barefoot behind the seaplane. Watch out - high speed catamarans have been launched to catch you. Weave your way to the seaplane to gain control and escape!

Scene 3

You have destroyed Sanchez's drug factory only to find he has escaped you once again. You must prevent Sanchez reaching the border with his drugs haul stored in 18-wheeler tankers. In the chase sequence to end all chases you must destroy each tanker in turn until you reach the final tanker containing Sanchez. Be on the lookout - Sanchez has Stinger missiles to prevent you using your "Licence To Kill".

Once you have mastered each sequence, improve your score by going round again - but this time it will be much harder.

Controlling Bond

Bond controls a variety of vehicles by moving left and right to dodge/steer. Push forwards and backwards to accelerate and decelerate. When running, aim by pressing the fire button to go into fire mode. Moving left and right moves the aiming reticle and pressing the fire button again shoots in that direction. Push forward to continue running.

At certain times, a reticle will appear telling you to Jump, Shoot, etc - press fire to do this.

Status Panel

Underneath the 007 logo, a systems panel is displayed which changes with each stage. This gives Altimeter/Radar/Ammunition rounds, countdown timer, oxygen level, take-off speed and miles to border in sequence. The bottom window displays the score/lives panel.
