Alone it stands, majestic and proud... the final hope to Earth's savagery and overpopulation... North Star, a glorious space station orbiting serene tranquility, too much tranquility... preparation should be underway for the final evacuation.

Communications are dead, scientist cannot be raised... a dreadful gloom overtakes the population... has their last hope gone? Only one has the necessary powers. That one is you... a unique being on a mission to resque a unique project.

I got this is on my 13th birthday, April `88 (yeah i know OCD!)

Good graphics, but infuriating to play. Slow moving, you can`t change direction mid jump. Too hard.

Love it.
