About this game

Hadron is a first-person space-based shoot 'em up released for the Apple II in 1981 by Sirius Software, Inc.

The objective is to follow enemy fighters to their base and destroy it. Along the route, players can engage different enemy types, including fighters, saucers, sensors, and robots. Each ship has a specific vulnerable area, such as the antenna on a surveillance ship.

Ammunition and fuel are limited, with fuel being consumed while steering or changing speed. Destroying enemy ships reduces the flak that can obstruct the journey to the base. After successfully destroying the base, the player's ship is refuelled and resupplied before advancing to a more difficult level.
