Player's Review
Spectrum 128k
Released by Hewson in 1987. Out before Cybernoid but you can see similarities in the colours and gfx used in this game.
This is one of my favourite games on the Spectrum. Colourful and large graphics with complimentary sound effects. You move along as a steady pace so can take your time. It helps to memorise what screen comes up next though. I came back to this game time and time again and its just overall a very good game for the spectrum. What usually gets you killed is accidently getting into a jump loop so you end up going further than intended and hit something like a mine. about half way into each level you get a powered up suit with more fire power and immunity to ground damage such as mines and whatever those green things are that pop out of the floor. There is just something really satisfying about those explosion sounds.
