It's like Stardust, but it's super. And as with other games in this list, we probably don't need both games, but here we are.
The game is very much like the original Stardust, in that it's essentially Asteroids with great graphics and sound, new weapons, various enemies, and a three-dimensional tunnel section to break up proceedings. The main differences lie in the adjustment to the game's difficulty, which according to Amiga Power has been toned down from the somewhat unfair original. All in all, it's an improved version of an already very playable game.

Well, I'll have to take the Amiga Power team's word for it that this is a lot better than the original, because at first glance I couldn't exactly see a huge difference, but if I had played the first game more, maybe I would have noticed. Still, if this style of game takes your fancy, this is as good as it gets.
