A masterpiece of brain twisting entertainment. If Rubik ever turned his hand to computer programming he would produce something like this. Read Review
An adventure in space and time.
You have been sent to follow up the explosion on Io, which threatens the mining operation there.
You must single-handedly save the Robot mining platforms from the flames which are engulfing them.
Pipeline is a massive arcade adventure which includes the novel pipeline system.
Once you enter the Pipeline, you are carried along to be deposited wherever the pipe ends!
You must collect all the Sulphur drums from each level of the extraction platform in turn.
You will have to travel the pipeline and use detonators and even Space Burgers.
When you have collected all the drums from a platform you must then pick up the small control robot, allowing you to move on to the next platorm.
But beware the control robot is programmed to destroy its program and you with it.
Having picked up the robot, you must move away quickly until the destruct sequence is initiated.
