I suppose it was great for the time, but nowadays there are MUCH better action games. Give it a shot for some ol' school first-person action. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.2 Story ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You are the super spy. Your objective: stop terrorists and rescue hostages in hostile situations around the world. On this mission you've been dispatched to an office building that is a front for a dangerous terrorist organization. You must destroy all their weapons of mass destruction and help the enslaved scientists before time runs out. Dismissed! =============================================================================== ===== 2.0 THE BASICS ========================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.1 Game Start ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Press Start to begin the game. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.2 On-Screen Display ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1P- 000000 ========== The player's current points. HI- 000000 ========== The high score for the game. Weapon ====== The weapon picture to the left is your current weapon. Objective ========= Small pictures of your current objectives will appear under the points. Health ====== The red bars under the objectives are the current health.

This goes up when you get more EX points. AC === Apparently this stands for Armor Class, aka defense. This determines how much damage you can take.

Locked door. ----------------------------- |LOCK|INF1|XXXXXXXXXXXXXX|EL08| |-----------------------------| | | ----------------------------- 14th Floor ============ So you just got here from the 11th floor.

Remember that one guy who said a leader is by a wall on the left? Well, he is so wrong it's unbelievable. Backtrack back to the elevator and go right to the large room that was empty the first time.

Head right and up through the corridors to get to the room at the end. Here you'll meet the President, the game's final boss. His attacks are much like the fake King from earlier on, but he also has a small jump kick that can get annoying. Walk left and right and hit him to avoid his attacks, and eventually the "mighty" President will go down. Watch the rather depressing ending, and congratulations for beating the game. EL15.. The elevator from 15F. NBDY.. Nobody is here. FHT1.. A fight with a masked goon. KING.. A fight with King, the game's final boss. INF1.. "Where's the President?" INF2.. "The President...
