Unofficial sequel to the 1987 ZX Spectrum game "Exolon" by Rafaelle Cecco



Intelligence agents informed the "Earth Council" of an alien race planning to attack and destroy the Earth. Vitorc had the reputation of being a bit of a badass, so it was he who was commissioned for the job - To rid the alien planet of all the scum and save the Earth from certain doom.

Vitorc blasted his way thru 125 screens of alien slime. Its what his job was and its what he did best. He succeeded and promptly flew home...

The "Earth Council" thanked him for his efforts but wouldn't allow him to land on Earth - EVER - because of possible alien contamination.

Dejected and bemused Vitorc returned to the dreaded planet only to find that the aliens had rebuilt their cities and were preparing an army for the destruction of earth once more. Even though Earth shunned him after saving them once, Vitorc, the true hero, decided he must save the planet once again. Anyway, those damn aliens had his ship in a magnetic tractor beam powered by a huge reactor so he had to do the dirty deed !! 

Kill the baddies, blow the reactor and get off this damned planet...

Infestation (ZX Spectrum Next)

 BY LEONIS


This morning was clearly not a good one for the space miner. Although, the concept of morning is basically nonexistent on this inhospitable piece of rock within Jupiter's gravity well.

Another targeted explosion in the mine opened a large cavity, disturbing its inhabitants, and hundreds of aggressive bugs broke into the base.

A heavy vibratory hammer and a clumsy spacesuit won't be enough to deal with these nimble three-meter centipedes. Fortunately, there are still 25 bombs left, and at the base, most likely in the upper left part, there should be a box where they can always be replenished.

The task is complicated by the fact that due to the depressurization, the hapless rare mineral hunter has only 25,000 units of oxygen at his disposal

He must deal with the intruders as quickly as possible before they, wielding their powerful mandibles, completely reduce the valuable equipment and gear to rubble.
