Hero

This former commercial release is now available as Freeware due to the generosity of the programmer, and is a must for fans of this genre. The only differences from the full version are the lack of game introduction and one or two minor alterations. The game itself involves the rescue of a number of trapped personnel from a bio-nuclear complex. Radiation is dangerously high and security droids guard many areas but you must reach the trapped individuals in time and retrieve their teleport card. Your character, Jim, is completely joystick controlled throughout the game and can run, walk, jump, crawl and climb as well as fight off adversaries and access the computers that he finds scattered within the complex. A fun and challenging game with a great deal of appeal and a variety of levels for extended interest. Needs 1 Mb.
