About the game

The colony on Tau Ceti III was wiped out by plague, and the planet's malfunctioning robot defences then destroyed a second expedition. You fly in alone in a Skimmer to shut down the central fusion reactor. From the cockpit, you explore a network of cities on the planet's surface, fight off robot defenders, and gather the cooling rods needed to shut the reactor down. It's a demanding blend of 3D shooting, navigation and strategy from Pete Cooke.
