Game Rules and Instructions

You are Captain Arius, Commander of the AQU fleet. Your ship has been badly damaged in the battle with the Finorgg. You have lost shields and forward cannons. Armed with only Galloway warhead bombs, you are forced to try an emergency landing on the abandoned Grangor moon. The city is long abandoned, but it does have a landing zone! You must try and guide your damaged ship which is being forced down by the high gravitational field of the moon. Using your bombs, you must clear a landing path through the abandoned city scape. 

Rules

There is only 1 key required to play 10Liner BOMBER! 2025, you simply press RTN (return/enter) to drop your bomb. The bomb will continue to the bottom of the screen, unless you press RTN again.
