![From Wikipedia:
"The player controls a robot flying and shooting through a four story maze, attempting to rescue people and animals, while avoiding traps and enemies [alien creatures, snakes, eagles, magnets and axes]. There are only three levels, but the game repeatedly starts over in a more difficult version [faster enemies, new enemies, etc.]."
