ReTroViRuS2016-09-27 (7/10) A decent port of the MS-DOS game with some features stripped down to accomodate dated Amiga hardware: Loading from floppy disk takes a long time. While we got to see an animation of a Terminator squad fighting Genestealers in the PC intro, there are only a couple of still images on the Amiga. Speech was also removed entirely due to the limited storage space of the Amiga's 880 kB floppy disks. View all comments (962)
Karpow2014-05-01 (8/10) This should have been ported to AGA only. Porting it to OCS/ECS only resulted many missing features from PC version, pale graphics and it's a little sluggish too which is a shame. Nevertheless, it's still a great game. View all comments (258)

mailman2010-04-18 (8/10) There is unbelievable atmosphere in this game. Although it is very difficult but still very addictive. It is an excellent game but a designer or a programmer should be shot for the lack of strife option and immense loading times. There is also a problem with the mundane set of actions. There are too many things that needs to be done all over again using exactly the same method. View all comments (732)
runequester2009-09-04 (8/10) Very hard, and required a good sense of when to move cautiously and when to make a dash. Sounds are sparse during missions but the music in the menu's is amazing, and the game drips with atmosphere View all comments (23)
tertronostalgic2009-03-12 (9/10) Absolutely fabulous. Tense and atmospheric. One of the best and most user friendly Amiga games ever. You need brains and brawn to succeed in this little beauty - 9/10 View all comments (248)
radioman9702008-04-11 Well, this game came out during my Amiga-to-PC transition. I ended up playing the demo of the Amiga version endlessly, then shamefully I bought the PC version (and it's pretty decent Windows sequel). A really really entertaining concept. Often the game scared me quite a bit as I'm waiting for something to jump out. I quite liked the PC version. I believe the Amiga one was just as good. The Alien movies were definitely the inspiration and they nailed it pretty good.
If you're frusted, keep trying...I was frustrated a bit too on the demo but soon got the hang of it and when I got the full game I had no problems at all (well, except for getting the stupid PC sound to work). I don't know if this game has aged or not...I'll have to find out. I'm sure there is no way I can get either PC game going but this should emulate just fine and I can (shamelessly again) finally play the Amiga full version. View all comments (288)
Myszaqu2008-02-10 (9/10) Game was too hard/frustrating for me, but i liked playing extra missions just for fun. Very creepy/spooky. Bueatiful sound - for example screams of killed terminators... View all comments (56)
Kef2005-04-06 (8/10) I found this a fun and addictive game but damn hard at the same time. Maybe that's how it is meant to be?? I didn't like the fact you could jump in and try any of the missions instead of earning it. The music and graphics compliment the game well but it is a little slow and clunky at times. It has special appeal for Games Workshop fans! View all comments (29)
Inferno2005-02-12 (9/10) Great, great game with an even greater background (Games Workshop's Warhammer 40.000 and its spin-offs, that is). Awkward and terribly slow at times, but so addictive and atmospheric that it was nearly impossible to put it down. Die, damn Genestealers, die! View all comments (233)
