Published in Home Computing Weekly #2

A fast-moving and colourful machine code game in the Invaders mould and well up to Imagine's standards.

The dazzling screen display includes throbbing circles, birdlike creatures and spinning deltas. And they all have one purpose in life - to wipe you off the face of the galaxy. You fend them off with your laser gun and move by using the thrust key.

Fast reactions and some fancy fingerwork are needed to survive in one level long enough to reach the next.

The true test of a game like this is the "just one more go" syndrome. And with Arcadia, you will find yourself suffering from just that. It is so tempting to try again.

Well packaged and well worth the money.
