Super G-Man

Yes folks, Codemasters has done it again and devised a splendidly entertaining cheapie. a cross between Jet Pak and Defender. Not only do you have to worry about gravity and a short fuel supply, but there are a number of perfectly gruesome aliens after your blood too.

The idea is to fly through the lunar landscape, picking up fuel cannisters as you go, along with some ammo to replenish your laser, in order to meet up with your shuttle to take you back home. Contact with the rocky outcrops is deadly and shaking hands with the aliens is definitely a no-go area. The action is not as fast as it could have been, but I suppose this way it lends itself to more players. Not very difficult after you've played it a bit, but great fun.

Overall Summary

Get back to your ship and watch out for those aliens!
