Dr. Dread
---------
In the year 2011, a genius won the Nobel Peace prize for his work 
in chemistry, robotics, and electrical sound waves. It is rumored
that 2 years ago, in 2023, a lab worker spilled a deadly mixture 
of gases, killing himself, and rendering the genius totally insane. 
Since then, he has gone by the name, Dr. Dread, and seeks to 
destroy the world as we know it in order to take over the planet.

It is your mission to ultimately stop him. You will be up against 
Dr. Dread's powerful Electro Droids. You will be sent on missions
which will require that you make your way past these Droids 
in order to rescue hostages, find secret papers, stop chemical 
disasters, and many other acts of bravery.

ANSI Animated Battles! Actually battle the droids using your skill
to "dodge" waves and shoot on target. Multi-node multi-player door
allows players to actually "see" each other on-line, traveling
together or chasing one another through zones to challenge to 
battles. On-line chat feature. 

Go on missions to rescue the hostages and use your wits to make your 
way past Sizzlers, Zingers, Force Fields & many other Electro-Droids. 
Watch out for Traps! Go on Key Quests to find the keys to the
locked doorways for shortcuts through the zones.

Purchase gifts at Babbette's Boutique for your favorite Agent Sweetie
in order to trade Romance points to Venus for more valuable items.
Chase the strange little guy in the green lab coat around until you
catch him. Then purchase unusual items from him to aid you in your
quest for Dr. Dread.

Then ultimately, build your skills to make your way to the final
level of difficulty, where Dr. Dread's Laboratory sits. If you can
make your way past Dr. Dread's body guard droid, you may then
attempt to use your skills in the most deadly of obstacle courses
that Dr. Dread has ever created. Can YOU capture Dr. Dread?
