This game features some very odd mutated creatures and a wide variety of puzzles, as most of the tokens are in fairly inaccessible places on each sector.Despite the nice graphics and some stonking music, the game is difficult and the character you control can be quite awkward to get him to do what you want. |-| style="border-bottom:1px solid grey; " align="right" |5|-|From [[CPCGameReviews]]1986

== Plot ==
The colonisation team had almost completed their task when a nuclear power unit went super-critical. The base had to be abandoned. It is now down to you to make the planetoid safe again! You do this by moving around the planetoid, "decontaminating" it - collecting all the radioactive objects - and when each screen is cleared, it becomes a Safe Zone. A screen which no longer exposes you to radiation - something which happens all the time in non-safe screens. Of course, there are highly radioactive life forms to avoid as well. Once all screens have been made safe, you complete the game. You have a few spare radiation suits (lives) on the start screen. Without a suit, you are highly vulnerable.
