Synopsis

Plot

The Zyroneans were an advanced, pacifistic civilisation, until the arrival of KAYLETH and the ensuing destruction!

Kayleth's craving for chromazin (a rare mineral), found in small quantities on Zyron) led him to this part of the galaxy. He dominated the Zyronean skies with awesome power, using Atomic bisemblers, he sent down his androids to enslave the population and force them to claw-out the subterranean rocks to extract the precious ore.

You, a loyal Zyronean, had avoided capture and were planning a way to rid the planet of Kayleth, however as you are about to discover, events have overtaken your plans!

Notes

Kayleth was launched under the heading "Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine Presents".

The game is purely Ufnowski's work, but the plan was to create an entire series, with games based on Asimov's books. Nothing ever came of this, though.

The game engine was licensed from Roger Taylor's Ashminster Computing.
