As a kid I used to play the ZX Spectrum version. The C-64's Marauder has more colorful graphics and runs somewhat smoother. On the other hand the Spectrum version is easier to play, the shots in C-64 version do not reach too far plus the pacing is often very hectic. I rated this version 7/10.

Those freak'n air attacks! Overall a good game, not impossibly hard but concentration is needed at all times. Great graphics and music, reviewed too harshly by ZZAP. 7. 5/10 from me!

A typical game of the golden era of the Commie 1987/1988: It was technically good but not brilliant, it featured at least one original idea that only worked so-so, it was playable but not addictive. That's not to say it is bad - in fact, what made the era so special is that rather good games like this were relased almost on a daily basis.

Yeah! Good graphics and superb music here, but it is too hard to play. 8/10

Man the in-game music is simply brilliant!!

Discovered this nice game while scrolling through the Gamebase. The game is very solid, good graphic, good gameplay, and as Swissjack and TWR mentioned, the ingame-tune is amazing. The game is easy to play, difficult to master, but with a bit of experience you can stand it. If you never played it you should immediately take a look at it.

Dito TWR!!! Especially the music during the game is outstanding. Well done Barry! 9/10

The game looks nice with superb graphics. The music is a hit. The tune while you play is brilliant. The game-play is pretty nice, nothing to wet your pants over but quite OK.

... Not to forget the Sisters Of Mercy (Sisterhood) Soundtrack

Nice graphics, but too hard.. Its a pity coz the game looks and plays very cool

COMMENT: "Written while I was still living in Scotland, Robert Magowan wrote the game and Mark Kelly took all the credit, got the good job and moved to California... Cant blame him really :) I think this was the first time I'd done anything on the 64 that was vaguely acceptable." (BL) Only tunes #1-3 are used in the game. #4-6 are taken from Barry's workdisks.
