A strange force as taken 10 parts of the Galaxy and placed them elsewhere. It's up to the Clone Ranger to find the 10 misplaced parts and replace them.
A weird platform game, but fairly interesting. The problem is it as a few bugs that spoil the game. I got stuck on top of a tree in planet Eden and had to reset the game. The maze is quite varied with some unusual screens. 10 different planes, some called Lunos, Skylight, Eden, etc. In fact because you can travel from planet to planet, the game ends up with a fairly big variety of different screens. And some planets are quite distinct from one another.
It's a nice game for any fan of Jet Set Willy, Chuckie Egg 2 and the like.

The original cassette included a second game called the Junior Ranger's Handbook as bonus on the B-side.
