Author Info: http://www.babins.org/Guy/Interests.htm Description: This full set contains three levels which start at the house sitting in the middle of no where. Your goal is simply eliminate the threat completely in order to escape through the pit in the garage. The pit would become accessible once the big flying baddy is eliminated. The level would end once entering the pit---it is designated to go to the next level which take place near the back alley from the entrance of the skyscraper. Your first goal is to make it inside the skyscraper carefully and find the elevator. Once inside the elevator, the level changes to the final escape. Your goal here is to try to find the wounded soldier who holds the security key for the top floor access. A ship is awaiting for you on the top roof. Your final goal is to reach it in order to escape from the Stroggos' stronghold. Good Luck!
