i am not able to get past the first level, which is a maze game with neat graphics and repetitive gameplay: run along corridors losing your orientation, shoot aliens, check storerooms, find a computer, try a wrong password.

which is not much fun, after a while.

A pretty dull experience this one. Nothing rewarding about endless wondering for next to nothing. Decent music during the game is the only faithful thing about this game which is saying something.

Nice music but the gameplay is far too weak and the graphics are bland. When you look at whose involved in the game and their other work, it's quite a surprise for this to misfire so badly.

The game is comprised of 3 different levels. The first one seems interesting, with an unusual perspective of the corridors you move in, but after a few minutes of play it turns out disappointing. It starts to get repetitive and nothing new seems to emerge, besides the Giger alien looking nasties. The second part is a 1942 type game, which seems a bit out of place here, although very playable. Finally the third part, which makes use of the same sprite for our hero is in fact a platform, shoot 'em up game. It's the most complex level of the whole, and probably the most enjoyable, but it's still nothing particularly outstanding.
Due to the quality of the programming team, I guess something better than average was to be expected.
