   Today they already forget the shock,
tested by the West at the news
about China's sale to Muslims

SILK WORM.But in 1988 certain
the company "TECMO LTD." was created
game of the same name.
   "SILK WORM"- a game for two. 
It fully matches
motto: "Kill them all!".      
   The game is
quite an interesting shooter.
Nice sound effects for
SPECCY128, well drawn
sprites and ease of control
make the game attractive to
many fans of ZX-SPECTRUM.
The only inconvenience is
that the choice of control in  
program is carried out onlyonce.                      
   Well, now about the game itself.
Как уже  говорилось выше, играть
Two people can get into it.   One
controls a helicopter (HELI),
another by a jeep (JEEP).
Supporting each other with fire,
need to destroy missile positions and
everything else that comes across
ways.   If one dies -
the second continues the game
alone.                       
   You can play alone.But when
you need to choose the same thing
control of jeep and helicopter,
and choose who to play for, so
how theywill move
synchronously.If you selected
helicopter, then the jeep will be for him
help until he dies.
What chance does he have of survival?
will not be enough, because for
passing the game highlighted total
three lives. Moreover, the jeep has
small advantage: he can
jump over obstacles;  him
the gun can be raised and
descend to fire at ground targets
and air targets.
