Synopsis

While flying on a reconnaissance mission, on an unmapped planet, you eject from your planet hopper before it crashes into a crater. Although you have a communicator it will not work through the side of the crater and so you must get away from the crater before you can use it. Another problem is that your communicator has a flat powercell, so you will have to find the wreck of your hopper to get a spare.

Notes

This game was originally published as a type-in for ZX Spectrum 16K in New Adventure Systems for the Spectrum by S. Robert Speel; published by Fontana Books in 1984. This adventure uses the Preset Future System.

In 2021, James O'Grady produced a significantly enhanced version of the game, which can be downloaded from his website. You can see a comparison of the two versions, and the techniques used, on YouTube.
