Game Covers - Impossible Mission 2 (Commodore 64)

TOP SECRET

Attention Special Agent 4125

Elvin Atombender Back in Power!

It has been just two short years since Elvin Atombender was vanquished.  Your supreme efforts, 4125, helped prevent global domination and anarchy.  But now, like a phoenix from the ashes, Elvin has risen once again.  Reports from the country indicate that Elvin has established a new stronghold, the headquarters of which is a five tower complex.

Early reports indicate the presence of guards, robots, mines, and trap doors.  Only one person has the vital knowledge to find the code numbers, keys, and objects; the ability to negotiate the maze of elevators; and the strength to outwit Elvin himself.  So once again we must ask you to make the supreme sacrifice.  We are aware that it is a mission from which there may be no return, but we have o put our trust in you if global destruction is not to result.

We wish you good luck and God's speed.

I.M.A Special Terrorist Unit.
