ESCAPE FROM MARS Written by Roger Olsen Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (C64 Version) Notes 1. The timepiece tells you how much time you have left before you run out of oxygen, but it isn't necessary to carry it, as you get plenty of warning when you are running low on oxygen. 2. When you get low on oxygen, just return to the engine room and your oxybottle will be automatically recharged. 3. It isn't possible to take the injector pump through the trapdoor, you must find another way. 4. The maze of halls is random, just keep trying until you get where you want to be - it doesn't take long. 5. The ship will be too heavy to take off if you take the gold bars. 6. Note in order to catch the Martian in the nets you must type TAKE MARTIAN and not use the word "get."
