OBJECTIVE

Your objective, as Tal, is to brave the maze of the evil forest, find the 
anti-radiation suit, and make your way into the stronghold of the alien 
oppressors. In the stronghold you must enter the generator room where you'll 
destroy the aliens' power source.

Throughout your journey you will have to contend with many deadly creatures 
and objects including mutant wildlife, acid rain, and enemy patrol drones. 
You must either avoid or destroy the obstacles in your path by jumping over 
or throwing rocks at them.

Once you've found and energized the suit, you must find all its attachments 
in order to survive. The closer you get to the aliens' power center, the 
higher the level of radiation becomes and the deadlier your foes become.

TAL'S JOURNEY

See the map to get an idea of the location of the suit of armor and all the 
necessary attachments. Without the suit of armor, rocks and agility are your 
only defense. Note, the map is extremely rough in nature and will provide you 
with only very general ideas on location of the articles.

Your first goal is to find the suit of armor and put it on to energize it. 
Once the suit is energized, the control panel at the bottom of the screen 
will be activated. From that you can tell the armors' energy level, Tal's 
stamina (at zero he falls to the ground in exhaustion), and the score. You 
can also see the attachments you have picked up, the radiation level, and 
messages.

Your second goal should be to find the anti-gravity boots and bring them back 
to the suit. With the suit and boots, you will be able to fly. (watch your 
energy level and be sure to pick up any energy packets you see on your 
journey).

Other attachments you should pick up include: The laser (L), Transporter
(T), Implosion Mines (M), and Shields (S)>

ENEMIES

On your journey, beware of the following things:

   o   PATROL LEADER DRONES: The toughest of four types of drones, hard to 
destroy and the biggest energy drain.

   o   PATROL A AND B DRONES: Easier to destroy and less of an energy drain.

   o   INDESTRUCTIBLE SEARCH AND DESTROY DRONES: Indestructible drones that 
drop bombs....but you can destroy the bombs.

   o   ALARM DRONES: calls other drones to you, destroy it fast or move to 
another screen quickly.

   o   MUTANT FLIES, JUGOIDS, AND SUBTAINS: all destroyed fairly easily with 
rocks or laser blasts. 

   o   ACID RAIN: It's lethal and indestructible.

   o   SLOTHS: Clinging to foliage, they're lethal and indestructible.

   o   INDESTRUCTIBLE COLLABORATOR GUNNERS: Shoot fire plasma bolts

   o   FLAME DRAGONS: Found above the city in the volcanic areas, spitting 
out gaseous flames. They drain your energy fast.

   o   HYDRAULIC SPIKES: In the volcanic area, they're energy draining and 
unstoppable.

If you can make it past all the hazards and destroy the aliens' power 
centecenter, your people will be freed and the human race will be saved. If 
you fail, your people will be DOOMED to a life of enslavement and misery.
