Exolon is an arcade shooter game released in 1987 by Hewson Consultants Ltd. The game features over a hundred screens of action-packed gameplay, where players control a heavily armed humanoid. The objective is to blast, battle, and overcome hordes of aliens that threaten the player. Players can release deadly grenades to devastate birth pods and shoot the slithering and scrambling aliens. The game also introduces a new twist, allowing players to switch between a vulnerable but athletic character named Vitorc and a powerful exoskeleton called Exolon.

Из всех тупых боевиков на Спектруме этот, пожалуй, лучший. Здесь очень точное управление, очень логично нарастает сложность (хоть и есть откровенно гадские экраны), и даже здешние тормоза и глюки органично вписываются в геймплей и атмосферу. Кислотная палитра Спектрума, чернота дальнего космоса и пальба по злобным шарикам созданы друг для друга.
Не знаю, возможно ли пройти третий эпизод с одинарным пулеметом, не теряя жизней.
9/10.
