Issue 1 (Nov 1985) (Amtix) 15th Jun 2016 07:18Man has progressed far beyond the limits of the solar system and has begun to explore the unimaginably distant worlds in the search for re sources and knowledge. In every new system an intergalactic rescue cruiser stands at the ready in case of an emergency. It ts manned by volunteers of the Life corps. You are such a volunteer and the emergency at Braxx Bluff will either make you hero or a memory.
The lifeship Vega has stabilised orbit around the planet Proton in response to a distress call from the planet below. Three members of an exploratory team left their base in a rover and have fallen prey to the energy hungry creatures who inhabit the world. The creatures have been feeding on the energy banks in the rover which now lies stranded without power, the occupants slowly dying as the life support systems fail Your mission is simple — land, find the rover and return to base in time to save the lives of the crew.
There are 5 stages to the game. Should you land safely then you must proceed on foot towards the sound, but you havp to avoid the birds which are out to get you. When you complete this stage you discover the rover and it ts your task to drive it as fast as you can down the road Next comes the the sea skimming Here the rover stays at fall speed to avoid sinking but the sea is full of rocks which must be avoided at all costs. A direction finder guides you by the pitch of a sound towards the base If you complete that stage then you arrive at the base and a new mission starts.
Braxx Bluff has rather odd looking but very simplistic graphics thai generate a reasonable representation of 3D. The sound isn't up to much but it has a critical role in the game. A playable entertainment that takes quite a bit of practice before you can get anywhere, Braxx Bluff has the necessary qualities to bring you back to play it again. It may look very simple but it works quite well.
Overall AMTIX! ratings: 7B%
