Gameplay
The player controls the Mantronix in its hunt for the four fugitives on the planet Zybor. The Mantronix must also find eight power cubes, necessary to drive the conveyor belts on the planetary surface, and also as fuel for the homeward flight. "Pulsators"—the life source of the fugitives—must also be destroyed. The criminals are protected by robots which are programmed to attack the Mantronix. The Mantronix is armed with a laser to defend itself and carry out its mission.
