Description
Asteroids for Nascom computers is a variant of Atari's arcade game with the same name. Like in the original game the player controls a small space craft in the middle of an asteroid belt. The aim is simply to shoot the asteroids while avoiding being hit. When a large asteroid is shot it splits into smaller ones. The craft uses a thrust control to send it forward and two other keys to rotate it left or right. The game has eight different difficulty levels that can be chosen before starting a game.
