I remember being ADDICTED to this back in the day. Flashbacks... New Coke... He Man Cartoons... Bananarama...

I loved this game back in the day. Does this mean that we've had games like this for 25 years???? Eek.

I thought it would be nice to complete this game before this year ends; but after I got all the circuits working, nothing happened and the Discovery fell down to IO.. The manual says that I must start up the engines, but how?? The manual is terrible, btw.

I played this game constantly when I was a kid. I haven't seen it in action since probably 1985.

a game based off of the space odyssey ?

Well, as you can see in this video, you need to fix HAL, rockets, life support, and other functions in order to escape the sun... In the movie 2010, the planet Jupiter turned into a sun after reactivating HAL and convince him to not investigate the phenomena to save all these scientists.

For me, this game is based on the movie without being strickly based on it.

@newcoleco, it's not the sun Discovery is falling down to, but Jupiters moon Io.

This game looks really tricky. Thanks for sharing Daniel.

You're not the only one who did think of watching this movie. :-)
