Fasten your safety belts for yet another Spectrum shoot-'em-up.

This time you're on board a helicopter pitted against waves of 'Spinad, Spore and Fusa' which look respectively like waggling scissors, red boxes, and blue octopuses.

You can move your machine up or down as it moves slowly across a boring green landscape. But you'll need one finger constantly on the fire button.

The Spinad, which are the most numerous, bounce diagonally toward you in large numbers. Meanwhile the occasional Fusa, which floats down screen, must be destroyed before reaching the ground or it will mutate into Spores which attack you from behind.

As a last resort, you can use one of your two smart bombs to obliterate everything on screen. But you have only two.

The sound is surprisingly good for the Spectrum, and all in all this is a reasonable game for 16K.
