Rick Dangerous combines fast-action arcade adventure with humorous graphics and strange sounds to give gamers an alternative to the fight to the death genre of entertainment software. The hero, armed only with a six-shooter, some dynamite, and a Big Stick, spends most of his time trying to stay alive amidst the chaos and mayhem of a variety of exotic, dangerous locales. Rick fights for his life in four scenarios: an Amazon temple, where Rick must dodge hostile tribesmen; an Egyptian pyramid, where Rick squares off against ruthless assassins; a Nazi prison camp, where Rick fights to free Allied POW's; and a Nazi missile base, where Rick is the last hope of the free world. Each scenario calls for the fast reflexes and the ability to solve puzzles appearing at a moment's notice, and leaving little time to find the answer.
