Trivia

Atari ST version

Atari ST version of the game was officially announced by System3 and there was even a preview version available however the full version was never released.

Amiga version

There are two Amiga versions of the game: floppy version and CD32 version (which is the same as floppy version). There was also a special edition of the game released that contained a comic and a poster.

Helpline

The original Spectrum version included a Helpline phone number, unfortunately the phone number in question was mistyped, meaning that a random lady in Eltham received numerous calls asking for solutions to the game's puzzles.

Sequel

Advertising, as well as the ending sequence of the Amiga version (and possibly others) suggest a sequel was planned, titled Dawn of Steel.
