Open the Doors of Doom and Destiny Call it fate, call it destiny, call it doom - as soon as I loaded Doors of Doom (Plus). I knew exactly what to expect. A zany, whacky arcade adventure with three difficulty levels, featuring a hapless hero armed only with a laser gun, who has to defeat legions of rogue robots in order to find the missing sections of a weapons system which will allow him to assemble the three Doors, in order to pass the test which will allow humanity to become part of the galactic federation ... you get the idea? Doors of Doom (Plus) is very colourful, accompanied by reasonable music, and has a fair degree of strategy and zapalogy involved. Each time you find a piece of the weapon system, you must find out how to use it, then face losing it when you teleport to the next level. Your task is to eliminate all the robots, keeping an eye on your energy level and picking up cups of tea to revive you. The game's main saving grace is the scenery designer, which allows you to edit the background to your own taste. In fact, the instructions spend more time explaining this option than dealing with the game itself, giving some indication of how exciting the whole business is. Doors of Doom (Plus) - ? I'd hate to see Doors of Doom (Minus).

Page créée en 435 millisecondes et consultée 260 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
