In Space Your Apple Can't Hear You Scream

Article Abstract:

In The Alien from Avalon Hill, space ship crew members must protect themselves from an alien presence bent on their destruction. The monster clones itself and gets nastier as the game evolves and it, and its many selves, must be killed off by means of gas cannisters, flamethrowers and lasers. But the monster is clever and can anticipate many threats to its existence. The game is based on 'Alien', the science fiction horror shocker film. Two screen displays are included.
