1986 Mastertronic Added Dimension (UK)
by Paul Hargreaves
Terminus is the sequel to Tantulus and I think both games are excellent action maze games.
Technically speaking both games are very well written, very smooth, fluid and fast. The plot is also very straight forward and easy to get into, however, this time, Paul got less carried away, making the game a bit shorter (512 screens against the 1000 from the previous game). The sprites are average but do their job very competently. The use of colour is great and all over the screen without any colour clashing. As adventure shooters games go, Terminus and Tantalus are both excellent, addictive and very playable.
