Aim of the game
It is 1942, and war is raging in the Pacific. The enemy's fleet
and airforce are growing in strength. It is up to you to restrict
their numbers in a daring solo mission. Your carrier will take you as
far as it dares, but from then on you are on your own!
Fly your plane over enemy territory and installations, scattered
islands and rough terrain. Smart manoeuvering and skilful aerobatics
are required to outwit the enemy planes; recovering the mystery power
capsules (labelled POW) will give your plane extra capabilities.
Be prepared - enemy gunners have their sights set on you, and their
pilots are prepared to die to thwart your mission. The carrier awaits
your safe return - but have you the skill to survive?
Comments
"A reasonable conversion of a game that wasn't very good
to start with."

A poor shoot-em-up, even by standards of the time.
