(c) SHAHID AHMAD 1985 THE GAME The airlock shuts with a dull 'thud' behind you, and you are aboard the strange, silent craft; its weapon systems primed, and centred on Earth. Your task is to discover the inbuilt self destruct mechanism which is known to exist; initiate it, and if possible, escape priorto detonation. Otherdetails regarding the mission cannot be assimilated at this time, but some further information regarding the self destruct system is given here: - (i) The detonation sequence is initiated by a four stage integrated priming mechanism, (ii) Each priming mechanism requires the completion of a multi-stage Disablement of Artifacts (DOA) sequence. (iii) The first DOA sequence is known to require a spanner, (iv) Attempts to initiate any of the priming sequences in the incorrect order will result in the termination of the operator, and cancellation of any previous missile priming orders. Conditions aboard this craft are known to support life; finite supplies of food and water are present. LOADING AMSTRAD 464 OWNERS 1.
