Rescue is a computer game published by Mastertronic in 1987 for the ZX Spectrum. It was written by Ste Cork and Tiny Williams.

[edit] Plot

The purpose of the game is to rescue the correct scientist and the "ultimate experiment". The player must then guide the scientists back to their space craft and refuel it before escaping.

The game generates the same maze layout each time it is played, however it randomises which scientist and which secret experiment (represented by a red test tube) is the correct one.

Enemies are spawned randomly and go around destroying the scientists, experiments, fuel and ammo caches, sometimes making it to your spaceship and destroying items you had already recovered.

[edit] Critical reaction

Rescue was placed at number 44 in the Your Sinclair official top 100.
