Gunsmoke

The game takes you back into the old Wild West days, when men had to live by their guns to stay alive. The town of Tombstone is controlled by the Cartwrights and any outsider is made very unwelcome... as you are about to find out!

The Great Wall

In the days of old, army commanders required 'runners' to keep in touch with their headquarters. You have been chosen to train for this dangerous occupation.

The training consists of running along the top of the great wall that divides two waring nations. Sounds easy, but it's not. You will encounter many hazards and obstacles along the way.

Some of the obstacles you will meet are: rocks, arrows, unpleasant guards and fast moving cannon balls. There are other hazards: these you will find out for yourselves. Contact with any of the obstacles will result in the loss of one of your lives. Remember: you only have four. Don't waste any!

Your performance is assessed by how quickly you manage to cross each section of wall. If you run out of time you will also forfeit a life. There are eight levels to conquer, each level contains 64 sections, a total of 512 sections... not a task for the faint of heart!

At the end of your trial, you can enter your name on the Roll of Honour, if you're good enough, accompanied by a choice of four fanfares.

Mega Force

Mega Force is the ultimate shoot-'em-up for the Electron. 24 planets, each inhabited by seven marauding aliens, each sweeping down on you in ten battle waves.

On completing a planet, a mothership appears. This must be destroyed. Failure to do this will damage your bonus score at the end of each stage.

Extra fire power in the form of super laser cannons can be found by shooting the spherical pods. An additional ship will be awarded on completion of five planet's zones if you have less than three ships.
