The year is 2112 and we on the Planet Earth have been fighting the inter-galactic wars for the past seventy years (see Mission Moonbase).
Strontium 98, a rocket fuel vital for our war effort, is mined from the moons of Sirus, a star system discovered in the 21st Century.
Until now, we have enjoyed a good working relationship with the Siruns but intelligence reports from the Central Lobe Department indicate that the Siruns have been secretly negotiating with our galactic enemies. Consequently, you have been selected to assist Captain Phoenix as he attempts to confirm or refute these reports.
As the 2 of you approach the mines, you notice a strange pulsating fungus. A quick computer analysis reveals that the fungus is deadly to mankind. Suddenly, you are attacked by Sirun satellite ships......
The reports were accurate! The Mission is on! Saving the lives of our miners is only part of it. The future of the Planet Earth depends on your skill and courage and, once again, on Captain Phoenix.
Like the other releases by Middlesex-based Phoenix Software, this package consisted of an arcade game that provided the code required to play the text adventure. For those who couldn't master the arcade game, the releases included a "panic packet" featuring *extremely* cryptic clues to the code.
