Today it wanted to remember this mythical game of ships of vertical action, which usually we know by kill-kills and which I spent many there of my “payments” of the week when he was young, by 1.985

The game is developed at a future-prehistoric time, because so soon we will be able to be dinosaurios, like endless spaceships and of devices ready to eliminate to us.

The speed is rather slow, he is not nothing frenetic in comparison with the last games of ships that have left in the market and is equipped with a quite precise control.

The main attraction of this game is to create one more a more powerful ship as we are uniting parts that we will be finding by the scenes, until getting to turn to us a fire BIRD FENIX.

I consider one of the best games of vertical action of time and one of the referring ones of many of the best present games. If teneis by some means the opportunity to play it or you are become fond of to this type of games, dejeis not to save the opportunity to throw a look to him.
