I'm not sure how many people know this, but the USSR was developing their own version of the Space Shuttle, and you get to pilot it in this game. Let's start with the good parts. It offers variety. First you're tasked with the launch procedure. You will go through pre-flight checks against the clock followed by another mini-game that simulates the stresses of the launch upon the human body. Finally if you're successful, there is a satellite launch. At this point the game takes an abrupt turn into an arcade shoot-'em-up, first scrolling vertically, followed by a maze-like section.
