Publisher's blurb You embark on the Maiden Voyage of the Starship Herman. This game takes up almost 200K and uses 2 disks. It includes more than 300 Hires screens of animated scenarios, a 3 dimensional maze, and a Martian labyrinth drawn entirely with hexagons. The takeoff and landing sequences are paddle or joystick controlled for the Apple and Atari and the game has 5 full scenarios. Once you land on Mars, you wander through fields of Sasquati and Degwat. Beware of the Vishu and the Lizardmen of Meshim. Seek the wise Mudra and unlock secrets hidden for centuries. Glyphs written on the Martin Sand hold the key to the mystery for which we offer $100 to the first to solve it. To answer a question we have been asked many times - yes, Sands of Mars attempts to fully utilize the sound and graphics capabilities of the Apple and Atari to their max!
