Are you ready?
Drop into a mind-bending true 3D world populated by rampaging robotic
mining droids. As a mercenary pilot hired by an unorthodox mining
corporation to deal with a robitic infestation a primary lunar mining
colony, you fly and blast your way through many levels of caverns and
labarinthine corridors. Your mission - rescue any survivors and
shut down the mine reactor any way you can. A safe return is entirely
optional!

freedom of movement in all dimensions. For the first time, explore
corridors leading from the roof, high up on walls or from the floor

Quake), the highly optimised Descent engine produces smooth gameplay
