Rescue is a computer game published by Mastertronic in 1987 for the ZX Spectrum. It was written by Ste Cork with music by Tiny Williams and graphics by Mark O'Neill.[1]
The purpose of the game is to rescue the correct scientist and the "ultimate experiment". The player must then guide the scientists back to their spacecraft and refuel it before escaping.
The game generates the same maze layout each time it is played, but it randomises which scientist and which secret experiment (represented by a red test tube) is the correct one.
Enemies are spawned randomly and go around destroying the scientists, experiments, fuel and ammo caches, sometimes making it to player's spaceship and destroying items the players had already recovered.
