Do battle with "Freez-Beasts", "Giant Maggots" and "Garganadons". Armed with only your decimator cannon and whatever else you can find, you must make your way to the bridge and activate the "E.H.D.". This game will accept all "standard" commands as well as the more unusual use of the 'EDIT' key to recall your last command ... very useful when time is short!!! To use the decimator cannon just input SHOOT ALIEN or whatever it is you wish to kill, but be careful of your aim. HIT During the 1920s in America, a law was passed that forbade the selling of alcohol. As a result of this law a "black market" in illegal booze sprang up, totally organised by the gangster element of the community. Each area was ruled over by a "Supremo" and when it was not feasible to conduct business by stealth or "pay-offs", a specialist known as a "Hitman" was frequently employed to eliminate the opposition. This is such a story ..... "The word is on the streets that local "big-shot" Buggs Macdowell has put out a contract on Cherry Reynolds, the new lady Mayor of Chicago. She has sworn to put him and his punks behind bars and he, in turn, has promised to blow her away. ... I'm RICKY SWIFT, an old High-school friend of Cherry's, and it is my task to fix Macdowell before his "Hitman" gift wraps Cherry in cement ....." Take on the role of RICKY SWIFT and enter the world of the hoodlums, where "drive-by" shootings are a common sight, gun-fire is a common sound and black the most common colour. Have you got the guts to go up against the MOB or will you just end up like a pencil ...... full of lead!!! NOTES To use the car just make sure you are in nit and then type in GO MANHATTAN or wherever it is you wish to go, and provided you have already learnt the name of the location you wish to go to during the course of your PRESENT game, then you will be transported there immediately. Should you "Die" or simply "Quit" and wish to re-start the game, then either load in a "saved" position or else use the "re-start" position that is recorded on the tape. You will find this just after the end of the main game, so stop the tape as soon as the main game has finished loading. This game will accept all the "standard" commands as well as the more unusual use of the 'EDIT' key to recall your last command.
