Survivors

1986 is going to be remembered for two things. Firstly is the enormous amount of arcade conversions coming out for home computers. Secondly, and the most important, the amount of budget software that is being released.

Budget titles account for over half of the sales of software. This is yet another of them but it's one of the worst.

Your mission is to rescue almost a thousand survivors from a hibernation dome, damaged in the recent nuclear war. To help you on your way, you are provided with three different droids to control.

Survivors

To hinder you on the mission are MK1 Guardian Droids which cause a serious loss of power on contact. If one droid eats the wrong earth, boulders can fall and prevent further progress.

Sound is needed in this game - even only spot effects.

Movement is jerky and the graphics are very simple.
