About this game

Highway Encounter is an isometric 3D action-strategy game in which you guide a Vorton droid and push a bomb along a highway toward an alien base.

The route spans 30 screens filled with obstacles and enemies, including barrels, mines, and aliens. Four additional bombs accompany the mission as extra lives, but if their Vortons are destroyed, those lives are lost without being available for direct use.
