The survivors of the city Atlantis are in a spaceship and it is your job to gather specimens from different planets. Navigate through meteor showers, pilot the shuttle to different planets and use the tractor beam to pick up life forms. This game follows on from Atlantis, another game by Imagic. The starfield effect in the game was created using a bug in the Atari 2600 hardware.
