As a sole astronaut, you must penetrate the alien Balangool space craft and destroy the evil "L-Brain". Make your way through 26 alphabet-labeled levels to find his lair. Every few sections (stages), the direction of the game's scrolling changes, from left-to-right, to bottom-to-top, to right-to-left, etc. One section features a pinball machine in which you must avoid the multiple flying pinballs. | ||
