The sound and›graphics are superb, and the game›scenario is quite unique. It uses what›it calls "Amiga sound fx" for its sound›effects and music.››It is programmed for a 50 Hz›electrical system, so the top of the›screen is slightly cut off. Some TV's›and moniters may not display the entire›screen because of this. Also, some of›the timing routines seem a bit too›fast, when run on our 60 Hz machines.›But overall, this does not detract›significantly from the game.››The game may be played in either single›player or two player mode, which is›changed by pressing the TAB key.››When the game starts, there are two›spaceships, one at the top and one at›the bottom of your screen. There is a›solid wall in front of each spaceship,›which can be used as a shield to hide›behind. After you blast a small opening›in your shield, you have to shoot›across an expanse filled with angled›deflectors. Whenever a fired shot hits›an angled deflector, it richochets.›Sometimes it richochets many dozens of›times, hitting many of these angled›deflectors along the way, If you are›not careful, you can be struck by your›own shots.››There are objects that appear in this›field of angled deflectors, which when›shot, sometimes explode into many›projectiles, each bouncing through the›field of angled deflectors, producing›the effect of schrapnel.››Overall, I'll give this game a level›8.5 rating, out of a possible 10.›
