You’re an astronaut tasked with cleaning up a lunar base, overrun by creatures that have laid eggs everywhere. Don’t expect to get far without reading the manual, if only to figure out the controls (you’ll need the arrow keys, so don’t use them as your joystick). You start on the surface, surrounded by hostile robots and centipedes. After a few failed attempts with the gun, I had to accept what the game expected of me: interacting with cubes, opening doors, exploring underground corridors…
Now, I just need to figure out where to go, what to do, and why I keep dying at regular intervals… If you can get into the mindset of the programmers from that time, endure the painfully slow movement, and navigate your way through a maze of uniform 3D corridors, you might succeed where I failed.
“I can’t lie to you about your chances, but you have my sympathies”.
