Archive notes
The game was advertised quite extensively in 1985 by Durell and was completed but not considered good enough for release. An article in issue 25 of Crash remarked: "although halfway through the project there was a moment when it looked like the game might make a commercial release, it didn't come up to scratch".#Clive Townsend, however, did use some of the routines from this game in the programming of {Saboteur|Durell Software Ltd}.#The available development version was recovered in 2007.
