Player's Review
"DARE YOU TRAVEL THE TRACKSALONE?
As android SCIH - PARG the destiny of the human race is in your hands. Transported by your masters to the planet NILMERG, your mission is to clear the planet of all alien life and threatening dangers, making it fit for human habitation.
Can you match the reflex actions demanded of SCIH - PARG as you guide your nuclear train on its perilous journey along the speeding monorail. Chased by alien hovercrafts, harried by NILMERG jet bombers, threatened by menacing watchers, the only ally you have is your nuclear train, with its fully armed missile silos and faster than light speed.
So hang on to your space helmet, keep your finger on the button and save the human race from its gloomy doom.
The Mission: Score 100,000 points by destroying all obstacles on the way, achieving escape flight. 14 levels 32 screens."
Antony Crowther was well know for being able to churn out games in record time (usually to a high quality) but it's probably not super challenging when you are doing the equivalent of asset swapping and in this case rejigging Loco into a new game. The box cover pretty much explains the game.
Unlike loco, here we have just one long run with the sole objective of reaching 100000 points to end the game. However getting there is going to be hard work as the game ramps up in difficulty as you progress. The enemy moves fast and blinking could be the end of you. You can speed up and slow down at will but not to slow as the enemy will just take you from behind.
Ammo needs to be carefully managed as holding to much (50) will cause you to explode. The alarm will go off from 40.
