MGT is a futuristic arcade adventure from the French software house Loriciels, in the same format as the Knightlore series of games. You control the MGT - MaGnetik Tank - around the Crystal Palace. The palace's many rooms are frozen because its life-support system broke down when infiltrated by alien bacteria.
There are two types of door connecting the rooms. The first type is an unguarded door, through which you may travel at any time. The other type is protected by a laser forcefield. To disengage it you must shoot the control panel. There are different types of control panels, and you must shoot the one with the same symbol as displayed above the door. Inside the rooms are raised ice blocks.
To get onto these, position the MGT over the lift pad and press Fire. The longer you fire, the higher your MGT floats. Release the button and your MGT gently floats back down to the ground. In some rooms roam droids, attempting to block your way. Contact with certain droids can be fatal. This is bad news because you've got only one life. This game has no more than average graphics, and the occasional sound is poor. The task to be completed is difficult and will take a long time. I personally think the task is too hard, with too few incentives along the way. The nouveau musique is delightful, but has little variation. MGT has little lasting appeal and is poor value for money.

Page créée en 556 millisecondes et consultée 9617 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. |
