Summary

A great game bested by its sequel.

The Good

It's a great game that developed upon the idea of games like Thrust and added improvements such as multiple and unique weapon types for each ship. I also quite liked the full game (when playing two player of course) as it added more to the game than simplying blasting your opponent away.

The Bad

Not a great deal except that it really wasn't as good for single player.

The Bottom Line

A great game to play, especailly for two people, but it's is beat all round by its sequel (except for the multiplay fullgame mode.)
