Aim of the game
As the eponymous Eliminator, it's your job to clear the highways
of the future of an alien infestation.
Game play
race along the roads, shooting
the aliens, avoiding the obstacles and so on. Power-ups can be
collected and activated by selecting them with the Q key. There are
quite a few barriers along the road, which must be avoided - some
can be leapt over by hitting a strategically-positioned ramp, while
parts of others (coloured red) can be shot out to allow passage.
Adding to the general mayhem, on some levels you will be flipped
upside-down onto the "ceiling"!
Comments
"A fast and playable 'roadblasting' shoot-em-up".

Although it's a little tricky to play (thanks to the Spectrum's
relatively low resolution) ELIMINATOR is a nice game nonetheless. The
16-bit versions are very good indeed.
