Synopsis

Plot

This game can be played 2 different ways :
If you are either a MASTER or a TRIPOD then the object of the game is to destroy all the other HUMANS.
If you are not a MASTER or a TRIPOD then you must collect the appropriate objects and carry out the tasks to enable you to destroy the Golden City.
When you think you have the required objects in their correct form, move to the Golden City and fire away.

Notes

Inspired by John Christopher's The Tripods book series.

An unofficial port exists for the Microbee.

In 2014, the game was ported to the TRS-80 MC-10, TRS-80 Coco, and the Dragon 32 by Jim Gerrie.
