STORY AND PLAY INSTRUCTIONS:

- The nuclear-powered intruder base has invaded the galaxy, infesting all sectors with intruders and radioactive fallaut. Intruders who contact the fallout debris will be transformed into atomic mutants, who have unique powers.

- Your mission: Pilot the Drakton fighter throughout the sectors, blasting all enemies with plasma torpedoes. Don't delay, or the unstable fallout will change into even deadlier meta-fallout.

- Destruction of the intruder base will allow you to continue your mission in the next galaxy.
