This superb little program is a one screen game that promises loads o' fun (or everyone. Your task is to defeat the Daleks on their home planet Skaro. Either make them crash into each other, or use your trusty sonic screwdriver (which has a limited number of uses and only works at point blank range). Also, the Daleks cannot touch the Tardis. You move using the cursor key pad as a sort of clockwork movement tablet: f6 is East, f1 is South-West, and so on To use the sonic screwdriver, use the S key. But be warned -the Daleks track you relentlessly! If things get light use your compact random hyper space generator (H key) to get out quick. In dire emergencies enter the Tardis -but then the Daleks win, and you must beat them again on the same level. Daleks is a tough, thought-provoking game with some cute effects and an addictive quality that's often net present in commercial games. AA#49
