 ELIMINATOR 

 Hewson 1988



 CONTROLS : Keyboard, Kempston

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------

 AIM : As the eponymous Eliminator, it's your job to clear the highways

 of the future of an alien infestation. 

 

 GAMEPLAY : It's pretty simple, really: race along the roads, shooting

 the aliens, avoiding the obstacles and so on. Power-ups can be 

 collected and activated by selecting them with the Q key. There are

 quite a few barriers along the road, which must be avoided - some

 can be leapt over by hitting a strategically-positioned ramp, while

 parts of others (coloured red) can be shot out to allow passage.

 Adding to the general mayhem, on some levels you will be flipped

 upside-down onto the "ceiling"!



 COMMENTS : "A fast and playable 'roadblasting' shoot-em-up".

 RATING : 82% (CRASH #63, April 1989)



 NOW : Although it's a little tricky to play (thanks to the Spectrum's

 relatively low resolution) ELIMINATOR is a nice game nonetheless. The

 16-bit versions are very good indeed.
