The Game

Imprisoned on the planet Cramos, Holden lies forlornly in bare 'Iso-Cube' and reflects on his slim chances of freedom. In his 'heart-of-hearts' he knows he is innocent of all charges levelled at him but on Cramos narcotics is a 'dirty' word and the authorities have been know to vapourise suspects on the spot, so all things considered perhaps life in an 'Iso-Cube' ain't too bad after all.

Meanwhile, back on Earth, a top-level diplomat by the name of Andi Stalker is being briefed on his task and presented with the evidence that will clear Holden's name. However things are never that simple and Stalker knows that there is only a short period of time before the authorities on Cramos will tire of providing Holden with 'free board and lodging' and execute him for his so-called crimes, so it is imperative that both he and the evidence reach Cramos before Holden becomes just another statistic in the fight against narcotics.

Just as Stalker's ship is passing through the Sowod galaxy a saboteurs bomb disables the ship, rendering it inoperable and disabling the communications system. As the ship is pulled into the orbit of a small, uninhabited planet Stalker manages to escape in a life-support pod and crash-lands on the surface of the planet. The ship meanwhile breaks up upon entering the atmosphere and scatters both wreckage and the vital parts of the 'evidence' all over the surface.

Stalker's task and ultimately yours, is to locate this evidence and proceed to Cramos in time to save Holden from execution for a crime he never committed ... can you do it?
