From 1992 onwards, with the success of the new funparks firmly established, the leisure promoters have been developing more and more of these gigantic establishments on every continent. In the course of time, due to technical innovations, the park areas have expanded to such a degree that they are now known as planetoparks. The latest creation is called ETERNAM and it stretches over what was once the entire Earth.

Life-sized reconstructions of past eras, inhabited by bio-technological creatures, ensure that it is highly appreciated by the elite of the intergalactic populations. It is said that the techniques applied on Eternam are so advanced that it is impossible to distinguish between fiction and reality!

And that's the snag, for you received your invitation to Eternam, never even dreaming that this wonderful trip would conceal a diabolical trap!

Will you succeed in differentiating between virtual and physical reality?

Intuition, authority, wit, diplomacy and charm: do you think you have the required abilities to come out of this fabulous adventure safely?

However simply to win a smile from Tracy, you will be willing to take up all challenges, won't you?

You will travel in real time 3D and your quest will lead you through marvellous scenery (256 colours) which rivals the best of Hollywood's superproductions.

The cartoon sequences will add a new dimension to your adventure and you will meet a host of extraordinary characters.

The Event

Cutting suddenly into your internal video circuit the fabulous Tracy delivers this innocent message “Hello! The universal Security Agency is sending you on an observer mission to Archipelago. Something odd seems to be happening… You’re to find out what’s going on!” Innocent – that’s easy to say! If you had known that you would be transported through time and would meet characters straight from legends, perhaps you would have made sure you took special equipment. Especially for facing these hideous monsters straight from the designers’ feverish imaginations!

Congratulations Don Jonz! You have just won a Virtual Adventure Vacation on Eternam, the biggest and best planetary Funpark in the galaxy.

Hard working intergalactic Space Marshals like yourself deserve to experience the ultimate getaway. Travel through 3D landscapes to more than a half-dozen past human eras, populated with life-like bio-tech creatures offering tongue-in-cheek remarks. From the age of the pharaohs and the realm of medieval knights to the French Revolution and beyond, you'll have the adventure of a lifetime..., or several.

But, Mister Jonz, there is a slight problem...
Dragoons still inhabit Eternam wanting to reclaim the park and have joined forces with your arch-rival Mikhai Nuke. They plan to ruin your vacation in a big way!

At least you can count on help from the beautiful Tracy, a technician on the Eternam coordination team. Unfortunately, to escape Nuke's evil clutches, she has dematerialized into the Funpark's computer network, so Tracy will communicate only via a computer screen.

You'll need intuition, courage, wit diplomacy, charm and a surreal sense of humor. Only you can save Eternam - - and yourself. But who wouldn't face all challenges to win Tracy's smile. So... Enjoy your vacation, Mister Jonz!
