Suicide Express

Suicide Express is a video game in the action genre and published by Gremlin Graphics Software Limited originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on Commodore 64.

You are an android called Scih-Parg and you have been sent by your masters to the planet Nilmerg to eliminate all alien life forms that are against the inhabitants of your planet. You have to drive a nuclear train along the planet's monorail network through several levels destroying all life forms until you reach 100,000 points and can leave the planet. The aliens will send various vehicles to destroy you, such as airplanes and other trains. If you encounter a vehicle or bullets and missiles, you will lose one of your three lives. You have a limited amount of ammo, but you can pick up more along the way, but if you have 50 or more, you lose a life.

The game screen is split into two halves, with a horizontal scrolling shooter viewed from the side in the top half and a top-down map view indicating extra ammo and advancing aliens in the bottom half. The game is controlled with a joystick or keyboard and you can control the speed of your train as it moves from left to right in the top half of the screen, with the fire button firing missiles up and forward. In the lower half you can change tracks by moving up or down. You start the game at level one, but you can choose the first nine, but the game doesn't stop to start each level, but smoothly moves on to the next. After every 10,000 points you get an extra life and also on the screen you can see your score, lives, level and ammunition.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
