Poor old Ozzy the Orbital. He always gets the tough jobs. His latest mission has landed him in the weird worlds of the Octopodes and they are far from pleased to see him. Ozzy's mission is to collect the plutonium marbles that the Octopodes produce with their deadly tentacles. But why...? Because the Octopodes are hell-bent on annihilating the whole Orbital race by polluting their planet with the lethal marbles. Ozzy is going to need your help. There are twelve Octopode worlds to visit and Ozzy will have to work fast on each of them before the Plutonium dissolves him. The worlds have been designed to make capture of the marbles increasingly difficult and there are transporters with unknown destinations to both help and hinder him. Further problems are created by the patrolling Octopodes which are fatal on contact. The worlds are split into groups of four and once a group has been completed you can jump straight to another by using security passwords. Unfortunately for Ozzy he has not been told about the Octopodes contingency plan in the event of successful capture of all the marbles. They have a spare set of marbles and can make all the worlds invisible! The madness has just begun.
