Six-part arcade adventure game based very closely on Aliens the film.
1. Drop Ship Manoeuvre
You are in control of the drop ship, trying to keep in the 'pipe', the guidance circles on your head-up display. If you can't keep the pipe, the drop is aborted and you have to start again. The trick is to anticipate the twists and turns of the pipe, because it's almost impossible to react to some of the tighter bends. Make some sort of map, or just play it over and over until you know it.
2. APC Rescue
The marines are trapped inside the catwalks under the atmosphere processor. You have to guide them back to the APC, and you must do this by switching quickly between them, shooting some aliens and switching back again. When the screen flashes red get to the trooper as soon as you can, or he'll be chomped.
3. Operations Room
You are left to fend off the swarming aliens as the rest of the team cut through a door. Go for the fast moving aliens first, and just bump the slow moving ones away, or the fast moving ones will get through and kill your team.4. Air Duct Maze
Getting to drop zone through the ducts is a hazardous business. The aliens will follow you, so use this to your advantage and lead them where you want them and run the other way. (You'll see what I mean when you try it!) When an alien disappears, run for it, 'cos it'll pop up somewhere else almost immediately.5. Newt Rescue
Back to the catwalk again, this time to track Newt on her locator band. Glance at the range locator, but don't stare at it. You've only got a couple of seconds to shoot the aliens who pounce on you, so stay frosty and keep your eyes glued to the catwalk.
6. The Queen
An we don't mean HRH, neither! Box the queen's ears with the loader arms to soften her up a bit, then grab her with one of the claws and hold her over the hatch. It will open and then you can drop her through it. That's it! Game over! If you've played the game all the way through without using the skip mode, you'll see the final screen.
