Another classic I played on the good old amiga. it is your typical dungeon crawler but with a sci-fi setting. I did play this after first playing the 2nd one as back then getting games was a pain when living in the middle of nowhere and sometimes you'll find games like this in car boot sale. Which I did a few years after it was released, and Thank the gaming gods the folk who sold it kept the manual as without it you are locked out of the game. Not much difference between the DOS and Amiga version both are great.
