This game brought enormous success in 1988 to Furie
"HEWSON". Urpa immediately topped the top ten and throughout
After six months of marriage, I didn’t even go down to the second place. Many
I wouldn’t even underestimate such cases.
On December 6, one of the electronic publications in England published
a statue depicting how the game was created, who was its founder,
vateley u how long it took to make it. It was also written that
the game"NETHER WORLD"was recognized as the best game of 1988. In uhorux
there were publications about this game in electronic publications, there were no discussions
yiolkalu, uhorue were then envied as the owners of Cnektpyua,
so u this game.-----
2OOb year. How did the local television companies report on board?
an accident occurred on the interplanetary spacecraft "LOMEGA-3". Until then
It is not completely known how many people died and how many wasps
I'm staying alive. Scientists are also worried about the fate of "uytahtob",
who were to be delivered on this ship to Zeila for
further research. But kpoue uytahtob estyu ece u aliases,
which must be delivered to Zeila.
It was none other than you who survived this accident. Zaie-
tive that almost all the iytants siogli will be freed from their
cells, you rush to the control panel without hesitation - uueh-
but from there I also manage the work that is capable of collecting
these aliases. But after checking the systems, you discover that he survived
I love one robot u uuehho nii wai will have to collect so important
aliases for Zeilians.
-----
The graphics in the game are simply amazing. Just like u
and language. Everything is done at the highest level, the game is worth the candle.
The goal of the game is to collect a certain number of aliases, which
ry are scattered throughout the ship. During the game, do not forget o
uytahtax, I mean they will take your life, or a certain one
amount of energy. You can see all the readings from your robot.
child on the instrument board, which is located at the bottom of the screen,
uuehho tai u is written the number of aliases that is needed
I'll collect you guys.
Starting somewhere from level 5, flying objects appear
there are fragments of the ship that hovered in different parts of the ship
la. The new player will create these fragments for the purpose of special purposes.
Lei, I'm just hanging out in bakyyue. There are also
and interspatial transitions, and if you point the robot at them, then
I can easily move from one part of the screen to another. Don't surprise-
tesyu also if you see that a group of aliases is surrounded from all sides
four sides ctehauu, try to fly through one of
these walls, there must definitely be a hidden passage.That's all... I hope this brief description will help

NETHER EARTH
MAIN DESCRIPTION
(translation from English by Sergei Zotov)
The main goal of the game is to capture or destroy four
(in the original and up to 28 in the ZS Edition) bases located in a long
narrow city. You are urpokou, fighting against Insig-
nians (iInsignians, not Isignians!!!).
You control the devices (the head with the antenna), when
whom I also “enter” the bases (“putting” him on otuetky
`N`),I manage the work (I put it on their butt) or direct
robots, blocking their way.
When you land on a base, a
screen for building robots. Here you can select a combination
tyutsu robot, in accordance with availability. You must choose
chassis and at least one type of weapon.
The bipods chassis are the most rigid, and the hover (probably
anti-grav) are the fastest. Our weapons are the weakest - cannon,
the undertakings go uissiles and finally pulsar (phasers). Nuclear battle
destroys the robot carrying it, as well as the robots around it
comrade u buildings (however, in reality, robots are destroyed in a square-
Rate 4 by 4 or, and the buildings are only those with which the nuclear robot
was in contact). Electronics increases robot intelligence
(but as I understand it, it only affects the conduct of the battle, but also the way around
the presence of obstacles has no effect).
The amount of cash depends on how much you have
captured factories that produce components (which
I'll recognize you from the image above the entrance). You must take
Vatuyu as many more factories for fasterproduced
robot management. You can judge the ownership of the plant by the flag
ku to the left or right of the entrance. If on the left, then the plant is yours, if
on the right - computer.
When you have completed the robot, select Start Robot, otherwise
why you just leave the base. Undertakings You will return to the main eq-
wound Opposite the base there will be a robot that you built (if
built). Now I’ll either program it or take it
under direct control.
When you win a robot, a yen will appear in front of Bauu:
DIRECT CONTROL: Allows you to control robots, but not
lyu. To exit, press “fire”.
GIVE ORDERS: Allows you to give an order to the robot that it
I will carry out this until it is destroyed or until you disappear
him. I can change my order at any time. Can I give you the following?
orders:Stop and defend: The robot will stand until it gets closer
enemy robot.
Advance/retreat ?? uiles: The robot will move in the specified direction
direction over a certain distance. To set it use-
The "up"/"down" keys are used.
Search and destroy: The robot will roll away and destroy the enemy
hard robots or certain buildings.
Search and capture: The robot will roll and capture
these objects.
COMBAT MODE: This item allows you to use weapons
bot (especially since it does not end), and also control the movement
robot's wife, as in the first paragraph of June.
LEAVEROBOT: Allows you to separate from the robot.
CHEATS
The fastest way to win is as follows: build one
new robot on hover drive+cannon+uissiles+pulsar Ideas like
moving faster, avoiding fights with enemy robots,
if this is possible, go to the next base. Destroy the robot
tov near her. Build several robots to get started
bases (with orders to destroy enemies) and several for securing
cotton wool factories. Build several ventures at your first base
weak robots to capture factories in each base. Such images
You can control the majority of factories (u resources). U
Now I’m slowly developing, notouy that you actually
control the game. Just destroy enemy robots with
nuclear weapons. Now I need to capture or destroy the third
base. This will significantly delay the release of enemy robots from the last
her base. Now I play with bparou like a cat with a mouse.
-----
In uoeu Editionthe enemy depends on the number of captured factories
dov u bases toluko on EASY.
In this description they forgot to mention that from the quantity
weapons are directly proportional to the robot's performance. For example
ier, cannon+chassis is killed with one shot from the phaser, and
electronics+nuclear+phasers+uissiles+ anti-grav from six!
The shooting range for all types of weapons is the same, about
two screens (July 15-18).
ATTENTION GLITCH!
You probably realized that when conducting active military
actions, areas appear that are impossible to pass through. This is not
associated with the number of robots killed in one place. Program
written perfectly and does not arise during independent work
failures. But how do you start destroying in COMBAT MODE
enemies - these impassable creatures appear. The point is that
when you shoot and slightly overexpose the "fire" nporpauua
“froze” and waits until you release it. If these shots
the robot is destroyed,then there is a very high probability of the appearance of a
current meal. It depends on how much you were detained for
"fire." So act quickly.
Advices of Expert
(c) Ahucuuob Tuiofey
Experienced with 7 years of experience.
These tips are addressed primarily to those who are new to
sat down to play NETHER EARTH. And they are more for ZS Edition`99!.
Tip one (the most important one):
It has long been known that Iashuna is an iron fool. According to her
vitality and can only be affected by vigilant control from the outside
we are a person. Therefore, in this game it is necessary to “do everything manually”
kauu" (so says my very good friend) - all combat
actions must be carried out in COMBAT MODE! Using this rule
lo, jozhnogo through a standard map without losing a single robot
ta.
2. Even if you are sure that your work will have “enough of irritation”
to complete the task in automatic mode, heuhoro superfluous
yua and it won't hurt. Don't be greedy and release robots with
ELECTRONICS. They are starting to think just a little bit, although everything
equally astonishing with their ability to roll the longest and most labor-
I'll get lost in the "three pines".
3. Do not forget to control your battles
tsov. Even equipped with ELECTRONICS, they do not distinguish a wall from a building
u uoryt, accumulating y impenetrable obstacles u shooting at
enemies, I’ll be stuck for a long time (until you figure it out),
I create traffic jams, impassable traffic and even shoot
your own in the back!
4. Not necessarily cauouy I will capture all the factories - main
your target is enemy bases, and the factories are being captured by the weak
cheap u cheap robots.If I put it on, and PHASORS or
MISSILES buecto CANNON, then in a critical situation they cuoryt
I will stand up for myself.
5. I will also block my ships (or “head”) in
narrow nature of enemy robots, giving their robots time to ocbo-
depletion of free territory. The "head" is good, that's all
uhorux cases nouoraet I will direct my robot on the path of truth
without resorting to direct control - just enough pre-
I'm glad I took the wrong road.
6. "Not everything is dead that is dead"!If the robot you
controlled in COMBAT MODE, killed, then he begins to fight "in
pre-sert uykax". There is no need to rush to leave him - if not -
With great dexterity, before it is completely destroyed, I will have time to do
I’ll fire a couple of shots and stand up to the offender.
7. To prevent the formation of “impassable” particles
avoids large-scale military operations in areas,
limited buildings. These guysIt’s better to go through it manually
u mode is faster in terms of functionality.
8. If the “impassable” has become too much otherwise, don’t
If you're wasting your time, start the game over again.
9. With yuou, watch the obstacles. Hiding behind the huuu,
I can easily avoid attacks from all sides and one death at a time
I kill enemies.
1О. HOW TO PASS THE LEVEL if nothing works???
Select the difficulty level as follows. Some cards through you
incredibly complex even at the easy level. {That's right! Some-
ry cards I passed only on EASY}
You can use the following tactics:
From the beginning of the game, take an attentive look at the radar and evaluate
thread the card. If a solid wall is visible on the map, you will have to
I'll take advantage of NUCLEAR-BOMV: the first robot-kaikaze released
you go with her. If the wallfar away, then the robot is best released
tutyu on ANTI-GRAVS. The idea is to release a combat detachment "sophisticated-
new" robots, with orders from SEARCH&DESTROY ENEMY ROBOTS. After
of this, if I have the means, I will also release a group of combat
robots that should be aimed at capturing neutral factories
Dov (it’s never too late to reprogram them).
Now it's time to take control into my own hands - fly forward.
Blow up the kaiukaze robot near the obstacle. In this case it should
I will take special care so that I don’t harm him
their suitable robots. Undertakings, you take control of the ro-
bots, moving forward axially and avoiding all obstacles
Yes, I’m rushing at her until the first enemy robot.
The tactics of combat operations are simple: hiding behind an impenetrable

distance npuuepho equal to the width of the map, open the shooter
(at this distance the enemy robot does not shoot at the enemy;
it is not visible on the game screen, so it is necessary to
vatyusya on the radar); or by approaching the enemy so as not to
I'm hanging onthe lines of his fire rotate 90 degrees in his
side (it’s important to turn around in advance - before reaching the enemy 1-3
step) u finish off the robot from the side.
In any case, I shoot best with PHASORS.
If you lose your robot, take the next one. In general,
three or four robots behind you make up the necessary reserve; to
then, on occasion, they will support your actions orheu, otherwise u
will get ahead.
Please note: your target is enemy bases. The approach to research is complex
at these levels is difficult, but possible: here everything depends on your
reactions and taking advantage of every second to move towards
her. In this case, special attention must be paid to you again.

I'll just blow up the enemy base when I get close to
her, on a robot with NUCLEAR-BOMV.
----- Initially, the game was pre-loaded with status,
however, I had to refuse this due to shortage
58-86-О8 or write to e-uail: crazyzs@hotuail.soi. All post-
I hope to take it into account in the new version of the program.
Why did the ZS Edition appear?
There were several reasons for its appearance.
First of all, it's quite boring, I'll play hundreds of times in one
same level. On the same map, on the same difficulty level
ty, with the same u strategy. And the game is great!
Secondly, I wanted to do something more worthwhile, so that at least
I liked it (which is quite difficult in our time).
Thirdly, I saw "Nether Earth. Hellish Zeila." produced
of Eternity Industry. What an oration!!! And the core nporpau-It didn’t work (except for loading/unloading). U ece uy-
I'll cut off your tongue, you idiot! They just BOOSTED the nporpauuy to 128Kb u
everything. It is also completed in 11 partial days (according to bhytpehhuu
hours). Why was I doing this at all?
What's new?
LEVEL. Now I will select the difficulty level. It became
interesting after adding a couple of interesting subprograms
