What a strange game!
If I’ve understood correctly, the idea is to escape from a space prison run by aliens, solving puzzles by collecting objects (and cramming them into a ridiculously small inventory) to use later. It’s a bit like Dizzy, but set in a science fiction universe, with added clumsy hand-to-hand combat phases (which probably won’t stop you from progressing).
The interface is confusing at first but functional, the game has a very outdated style but turns out to be more manageable than similar titles from Psygnosis or Silmarils.
Honestly, this is the kind of gem I love to find—simple, original, and “atmospheric”.
