One of Epyx' last releases before they went out of business, this is a
cutting-edge game for its time in many ways: good graphics, plot (in which you
are an intergalactic police investigating an agent's disappearance), icon-based
inventory, and good interface. As a Star Police Captain, your job is to maintain
peace in the Universe. Bust up an intergalactic drug ring in an odyssey involving
pyramids, giant artichokes, a big conspiracy, and the Universe. Unfortunately,
the annoying 6-item inventory limit,
flat writing, and arcade sequences (yes, you have hit points in this game) dull
these strengths. Still, an above-average game that holds your attention with its
quirky charm right to the end. |
