            "My pump gun, it's so warm and cruel.
             His bike, it is now smashed and cool.

             He did resist, though I forbid this,
             now he's buried in the debris."          (Karl Iller)


   The ZONE OF THUNDER (ZOTH) is a Fight Game for one or two
   pilots, whose fascination is unparalleled by other
   multimedia games.  It features nice graphics,            
   bombastic sound and paralyzing action.  Each pilot has a 
   FightBike with which he's cruising a fighting arena.
   The task is to pick up weapons which lie around,
   to attack the opponent and to turn him into a pile of dust.
   The fight takes place in a futuristic 2D arena, filled   
   with random wall objects and framed by DisplacerGates which
   beam you from one side of the field to the other.
   As soon as a weapon is shot empty, you have to pick up
   further ammunition, or to replace it by another.
   If you don't want to be killed by the first hit,
   you have also to collect ProtectionShields.
   Unfortunately, with each hit, one shield is destroyed again.
   Luckily enough, new weapons, ammunition or shields appear
   everywhere, so you have always enough material to continue
   your fight. The RealitySound provides the very cool MadMax-
   Feeling that makes you sweat.

   Whoever's frightened by the use of Machineguns, Cruise Missiles,
   Pump Guns, Rocket Launchers, Light Swords or Bazookas
   should better play Tic-Tac-Toe...
