Description from the packaging.

Six levels of lightning-fast machine language play.
Requires joysticks.

You are the last hope! The alien Slimehordes of Fraxullus are attacking your cities. One by one, the inhabitants are being exterminated by the invincible Fraxullan mother ship. It moves relentlessly, drawing up the helpless natives and fiendishly carrying them to Dragonmaw, the sulfurous volcano of death, and then incinerating them. And you are the sole PROTECTOR!

This senseless killing must stop! You must save these innocent victims from their gruesome destiny. After you launch your Omicron Needlefighter from your base deep inside the Xlarr defense post, and fly through the booby trapped Laser Caves of Fear, you must transport your people, over the mountains, to the City of New Hope.

The aliens and fate conspire against you at every turn. The Fraxullan mother ship launches Xytonic Pulse-Trackers to destroy you, meteor showers rain from the heavens, and Dragonmaw threatens to erupt at any moment... Every second is precious! And you know that the survivors will not be safe for long, even in the City of New Hope. The Volcano will inevitably explode.

Painstakingly, every man, woman, and child must be flown past the Laser Fields of the Strakk and into the mighty Verdann Fortress. It is here that you must pass through the ultimate test. Your mouth is dry, and the sweat trickles down your face, as you strain against the impossible odds. There is no time to think, only to do! It has fallen on your shoulders, you are the last hope. You are the PROTECTOR!
