]Bubble Bus has always been known for huge, sprawling games. Remember Starquake? Well now there's another mega maze offering with The Fifth Quadrant, around 230 rooms and locations to explore. Once again we set off into deep space. The Galactic Survey Vessel Orion is on a mission to explore and map the galaxies of the Hercules Cluster. After 20 years of work just one sector remains. The crew put themselves into suspended animation and set off to go boldly where no one has boldly gone before. And then they get the Zimens. No, it's not some intergalactic space disease but a force of alien mechanical beings who infiltrate the Orion. When the crew regains its wits after waking from its space sleep, they find the ship's systems have been terminated and the computers reprogrammed in an alien language. As the ship's energy drains away the crew must try and regain control of the Orion. To do this you have four robots under your control which must be used to explore the ship, access lifts to different levels. Each robot has its own identity. They are SLOG, ship's captain and pilot, PLOT, navigator, KNUT, engineer, and BODD, the crewman. KNUT, in fact, is locked in prison when the game starts and the others must free him. The computers are scattered throughout the ship. CVG

Page créée en 206 millisecondes et consultée 3073 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. |
