THE SACRED ARMOUR OF ANTIRIAD
 Palace Software 1986

 CONTROLS : Keyboard, Kempston
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 AIM : A passive and peacful society established on Earth by the year
 2086 has its idyllic existance shattered by an invasion of an alien
 attack force. The populace are sent to work in the aliens' mines. Some
 rebelled, but one stood out as the most hardy and courageous. Named
 Tal, he was instructed by the elders to explore the land in search of
 the legendary item which humans had worked so hard to perfect.

  This item is, of course, the eponymous Sacred Armour - an anti-
 radiation (Antiriad) suit which renders the wearer impervious to just
 about any form of attack. As Tal your first objective is to find the
 armour, and then somehow overthrow the alien regime.

  Once you've managed to get hold of the armour, the next problem is to
 seek out the various items which will make you even more magnificent -
 anti-grav boots, particle negator, pulser beam and implosion mine are
 the vital elements. The implosion mine is perhaps more important than
 any of the other items. This is the object needed to destroy the
 aliens' base.

 COMMENTS : "A pretty addition to any arcade adventure fan's
 collection."
 RATING : 85% (CRASH #35, December 1986)

 NOW : Has definitely aged badly. The flaws in the graphics and
 gameplay are, unfortunately, all too obvious now.
