Highway Encounter is a strategy/action game played from a 3D isometric perspective in which you must successfully chaperone a bomb along a long, straight stretch of highway and into the alien base at the end of it. There are thirty screens to pass through and most are filled with hazards that threaten to block your progress (such as barrels) or destroy you (aliens and explosive mines).
Players control a robotic "Vorton" (resembling a dalek from Doctor Who) and one of the things that provides Highway Encounter with its unique appeal is that the bomb is constantly being pushed onwards by your extra lives - four more Vortons, who accompany you along the highway. A key strategic element to the game is for the player character to travel several screens ahead of the bomb to clear a safe path for it; normally this would be done by temporarily blocking the bomb's forward motion. However, if the bomb is left in an unsafe location, it is possible for all your extra lives to be lost without the player character being destr
My Great-Great-Grandfather was a Battle of Britain pilot, or so my father told me when
I explained to him that I wanted to join the Intergalactic Agricultural Research
Establishment. "Let's hope that some of his flying skills are still present in your genes!", were my
father's only remarks when I was awarded a flying scholarship.
To be one of "The Chosen Few" was rare, very rare according to statistics - 30,000
applications for 10 places each year. It isn't that the job is well paid either. most Skilled space pilots
earn more than the "Flying Farmers" as our nickname goes - but they don't carry the future of the
world on their shoulders, do they?
The IARE was founded to fuse the convergent disciplines of Agriculture and Space Travel into a
force which would make the colonisation of other planets more practical and simple. If one is being
absolutely truthful, it was the discovery of an Astalan alien agricultural station that made the genetic
breakthrough possible despite the IARE's claim that their gene
After an incident on 61 Cygnus in 2197 when a rookie pilot selected the wrong gear when docking with the main central reactor and reduced half the planet to molten lava, Gal-Corp decided that a special training facility was needed to provide an elite corps of pilots for the advanced military skimmers used in colonization and reconnaissance work. The Galcorp Academy for Advanced Skimmer Pilots (GASP) was founded in 2213 to meet this requirement. With an intake of over a hundred would be skimmer pilots a year, only a few meet the exacting requirement of flying and combat skills. In order to graduate from the Academy cadets must complete 20 missions, grouped in five levels of four, successfully.
In the ancient realms and provinces of the "Land of the Rising Sun" lived a breed of warriors - feared by all and who feared no one. These were the NINJA. To rise in the ranks of the Ninja was the ultimate challenge in human endeavour. Now is your chance to face the challenge.
The player must destroy the reactors on the island by dropping grenades on them. The reactors are defended by laser gun towers which can be temporarily disabled by disrupting their control towers.
The player's character rides a machine which is a combination motorcycle and hang glider. By driving down a mountainside and suddenly reversing direction, the player can take to the air. He can fly in any direction, or lose height, but cannot climb higher. There are many mountains on the island to help him achieve flight. To destroy a reactor he must fly over it dropping grenades.
On touching ground the motorcycle is restored. If the player falls in the sea he will be eaten by sharks.
Dan Dare: Pilot of the Future is a licensed action-adventure game based on the iconic British comic strip character. Players control Dan as he boards the Anastasia ship, which is promptly attacked by the hostile Treen aliens. Armed with a laser, Dan must race against time to locate and disarm a planetary destruction device. The game involves exploring the ship, battling Treens, and strategically transporting five crucial components to the control room for diffusion. Dan can only carry one part at a time, adding to the challenge. If captured, he's imprisoned but can escape, though this disorients his progress. The game balances combat, exploration, and puzzle-solving as Dan fights to save Earth from the Treen threat, culminating in a final escape to the surface.
A bomb has been planted in the Houses of Parliament by the dastardly Abru Caddabra and is due to blow up at midnight! As the hero, Slick, you must assemble a device (the BDU) to defuse the bomb.
The aim of this shooter game is to pilot a spacecraft which must pick up a pod using a tractor beam and fly it into space. The ship and pod are subject to gravity and inertia, and being connected by a stiff rod, they can end up spinning around each other, out of control. Hitting the walls of the cave with either the ship or the pod results in death.
The game combines both above and below water aspects.
Above the water, you must manage the company, press conferences and finances. Below the water, you explore the Titanic and her many secrets by navigating T.S.1 (your underwater robot) through a maze-like environment while trying to find a way to raise the ship to the surface.
