Imagine being teleported into five diverse movie worlds – Medieval, Wild West,
Science-Fiction, Gangster and Horror, and having to fight your way out. That’s
the situation which befalls couch-potato Billy when a new video recorder
malfunctions.
Gameplay has some similarities to Mega Twins, with multi-directional scrolling
through each level. Billy must face (amongst other things) knights and
gargoyles in Medieval world, cowboys and then Indians in the Wild West,
spaceships and aliens in Sci-Fi world, biplanes and squad cars in 1930s
Chicago, and ghosts and skeletons in horror world.
Fortunately many upgrades to your initial missiles are available, with the
laser being the best of all. These weapons can be upgraded to fire in more
directions, with smart bombs and shields also available.
