The MARTIANOIDS enter your ship, disrupting the passage of programs as
they are transmitted through The Brain of Markon, draining your battery in
desperate suicidal attacks to destroy you and your ship. Their Photon
Weapons pass through the internal parts of The Brain destroying all Active
Components in their path.
Your task is to guide the program from the Transmitter to the Receiver in
each sector. When a program is received the internal defences are
activated, thus preventing any further damage in that sector of The Brain.
Beware of Disposal Chutes as your program will fall down these and be
lost. If all the Active Components in each sector are destroyed then, the
sector is destroyed and can no longer be repaired or activated. Spare
Batteries are located around The Brain for you to use when your charges
become low. To defend yourself you have Lasers which destroy internal
walls, Active Components, Replacement Cones and Aliens.
To help you in your mission, your Console displays a map which shows your
position within The Brain, the position of the program and the status of
each sector. Red indicates the sector has been destroyed, White that has
been activated and flashing Red and Yellow indicates a sector under attack.
Also your Console displays messages to tell you what is happening within
The Brain.
