Information / Synopsis
Your job is to locate and transport the containers to your base avoiding enemies on your way. Your ship is equipped with a hook to carry the containers. This is a physics based arcade game, inspired on the very early classics such as "Thrust" , "Gravitar", "Lunar lander" and "Solar Jetman" for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) but with a strong Commodore 64 feel on it. Some people would say it's a hybrid between c64 and Amiga.
This game is a "pre-spin-off" (yes i just invented this word) of the magnificent and ultra gorgeous ...Moons of Darsalon.

Our Review
Pilots of Darsalon is a mega fun entertainer, we can challenge ourselves until we see how many points we get, or challenge our colleagues and see how long they last with the little ship in the authentic challenge mode. I'm not going to fool you, IT'S NOT EASY, it's designed for experienced players or those who're looking for challenges. It's challenging, nostalgic, and a lot of fun. A great appetizer for what Moons Of Darsalon has in store for us.
