This action packed game is a simulation of the 'DAMBUSTERS' raid of May 16 1943 against German dams on the Upper Ruhr. The object of the game is to pilot a Lancaster bomber from take-off in England, across the North Sea and Dutch coast to the target, whilst gaining as many points as possible along the way. The highest score so far is maintained on the display. There are five levels of difficulty in the game ranging from 'Flying School' to 'Group Captain'. At the start of the game, or if you press the 'START' key whilst on the runway, you will be able to select your initial rank with the joystick; subsequently your rank depends on how well you succeed on each mission. If you survive the mission a reconnaissance of the dam area is displayed. If you have breached the dam then you will be promoted to the next rank, otherwise you will be demoted. The game features fine vertical and horizontal scrolling, player-missile graphics and sound, and is suitable for players aged from pre-teenage to adult.
