                 [This is the first Commander Keen series.]
 
You play the role of Billy Blaze, eight year-old kid genius who builds an
interstellar ship when not working at home on his college fast-track degree.
Among other household objects, Billy uses his Nintendo joystick for flight
control and his mom's vacuum cleaner (heavily modified) for his ship's ion
propulsion system (with pile height adjustment).
 
At the hint of galactic trouble, Billy dons his brother's football helmet and
becomes "Commander Keen"--defender of Earth!  Ever on the side of justice, Keen
dispenses justice with an iron hand.
 
"Marooned on Mars" is episode one of the Commander Keen trilogy.  Only part
one is available via shareware distribution, the other two episodes ("The
Earth Explodes" and "Keen Must Die!") may only be purchased from Apogee.
 
EACH VOLUME HAS COMPLETELY UNIQUE GRAPHICS AND ANIMATION!  Episode one is
located on the planet mars.  Episode two takes place on the immense Vorticon
mothership, where you'll need to stop the destruction of Earth by disabling
the eight deadly ray cannons aimed at Earth's greatest cities and wonders.
Episode three takes Keen to the dangerous Vorticon home planet, where you'll
explore huge caves, battle the top Vorticon ninja fighters and discover the
secret of the Grand Intellect.

                     SPECIAL EDITION KEEN ADVENTURE: $34.95
 
Aliens Ate My Baby Sitter is a SPECIAL EDITION of the Commander Keen series.
It is a single, high-powered, tremendously fun game that is larger than the
entire first trilogy combined!  (Hint:  This is a REALLY BIG game.)
 
Commander Keen: Aliens Ate My Baby Sitter takes place right after Billy's
incredible adventure in Goodbye Galaxy (but only if he succeeds!).
 
It all begins when Billy Blaze's baby sitter is stolen by a mean bunch of
hungry aliens from the planet Fribbulus Xax.  She is going to be the main
course for dinner!  With your parents due home soon, how will you be able to
tell them, "The aliens ate my baby sitter!"?
 
Your galactic rescue mission will have you battling the dangerous aliens of
Fribbulus Xax, while collecting goodies to help you along the way.  Tons of
secret areas to discover, plus you'll need to find a way to get to the space
fortress orbiting high above the planet.
 
NOTE:  Over 2.5 Megs of EGA (VGA compatible) graphics!!!
 
AD LIB MUSIC AND SOUND EFFECTS.  A full musical soundtrack accompanies Keen
on his alien adventure.  Also features three skill levels, gigantic scrolling
levels, ultra-smooth animation and screen effects, save/restore games,
joystick support, and much more!  When Billy gets bored, he can even play a
computer game on his specially built watch.
 
NOTE:  Aliens Ate My Baby Sitter is a commercial release, and uses a simple
       copy protection scheme to prevent illegal software pirating.
 
To order, call 1-800-GAME-123, or use the ORDER.FRM file.  Look in the order
