 
Top class espionage is the name of the game. See if you make the grade as Steve Lucas' foreign connection. I have been chosen by 'M' for a secret and probably dangerous mission. The secret plans for the Nuclear Submarine 'Lobinar' have been stolen by the evil Xoltan who is threatening to build an exact replica and hold the world to ransom. My task is to find him and prevent him from carrying out any more evil deeds. Please help me by giving me instructions in the form of one or two word sentences such as 'CUT WIRE'. Here is a list of some words I understand: GO, IN, OUT, DOWN, CLIMB, N, S, E, W, PRAY, HELP, SCORE, GET, TAKE, GRAB, DROP, INVENTORY, SAY, WAIT, DRIVE, FLY, USE, INSERT, REPAIR, MEND, SHOOT, KILL, STAB. There are over 150 locations to visit in this game and it should prove quite a challenge to solve. If you really get stuck, the following hints may help, but I wouldn't advise you to read them except in desperation! Hints - You'll need something to cut the wire fence with . . . and you never know what ordinary objects can conceal unless they are examined carefully!
- Getting over a fence shouldn't prove too difficult if there's a tree nearby.
- The fisherman is a little unpredictable and I'd shoot first and ask questions later.
- Xoltan is wearing a bullet proof vest, but he is vulnerable to attack!
- Some of the other characters are not all they appear to be and I'd watch out for dangerous drivers and female spies.
- The taxi driver won't let you go without paying.
- A key would come in useful for something!
- Don't fly without a helmet!
- If you really get stuck, your jet pack may just help!
I'm not giving any more away!
