The aim of the game is to use a rover to explore the fractal surface of the planet "Koronis" and collect various technically highly developed modules, analyze them and act on them. The modules had different functions (protective shield, radar, laser, ...), the best modules should be kept in order to equip your own rover, the less good modules could be sold. A total of 20 rifts have to be mastered, in the last one a distribution base has to be destroyed in order to be able to take possession of the planet.
