Super Spy is a rather disappointing game, but it has one saving feature - it's different every time. Read Review
Full Instructions
Introduction
Follow the villain's trail across continents, through coded messages and 3D mazes until you find his lair!
A global spy-chase and maze adventure for the Dragon 32
Playing The Game
The game has four parts.
- The round-the-world spy chase in which you aim to discover the location of Dr. Death's secret hideaway.
- Exploring Dr. Death's island to discover the entrance to his underground maze.
- The 3-D graphic maze which you must navigate yourself through to find the control room where Dr. Death has hidden the kidnapped missile.
- Breaking the code to disarm the missile and save the world.
Clues
The clues available below should only be used in the event of sheer frustration.
Part A
When asked which gadgets you require, enter a single gadget number at a time, pressing ENTER after each number.
Remember that your destination is not necessarily one of those displayed on the screen - it amy be somewhere far more exotic!
When a situation arises, respond in normal sentences.
If your strength or weaponry is running low, return to London for it to be replenished. But not too often!
There are two types of clues to help you to find the location of the island. Firstly there are the coded messages, which you must decode. the second set of clues are the single letters which you may be given. Each letter appears in the name of the location, so if you collect the letters and swap them round you will eventually discover the secret. Please note that if you are killed and re-incarnated you must start the letter collecting clue again because the location may have changed.
When you find the correct location there will be a wait of about 40 seconds whilst the island is set up.
Part B
Enter N, S, E or W as a direction.
Watch your strength rating. Remember that an island is surrounded by sea.
Note your movements so that if you find the energy tablets you can return to them to gain extra strength.
If you run out of weapons, continue fighting by kicking, hitting, etc.
Part C
Try not to stay in one room for too long. To retrace your steps press the arrow down key. This rotates you by 180 degrees so that you are facing in the opposite direction.
Part D
You're on your own!
