Utter faff

This is one of those titles that I kept seeing in the shops, but knowing nothing about it (which I thought odd as I was into the subject matter - computer games) at around the time this was released (late 80s).

Having seen it, I can now state how relieved I am that this dross hadn't plagued me before now. A series of terribly unrealistic characters embark on a ridiculous quest to overthrow an implausible baddie. The whole ensemble is accompanied by some of the most laughably bad acting I've ever witnessed (especially the hacker in episode 1) and passed off as drama.

You know those shows that are described as being so bad they're good? This isn't one of them. It's just bad. Unutterably, depressingly, soul-destroyingly bad. Avoid, dear reader.
