Flash Gordon: Il Rapimento di Dale

## Description

Flash Gordon and Dale Arden board Dr. Zarkov’s rocket ship to reach a planet
on a collision course with the Earth. Upon crash-landing on the mysterious
planet, Flash and Dale face the minions of Ming the Merciless, who plans to
take Dale as his bride. Flash avoids capture and must find outside help in
order to enter the fortress and rescue Dale.

This action adventure was produced by the _Flash Gordon_ comic publisher for
Italy and distributed through newsagents just like the comics. As Flash, the
player wanders the alien planet across fixed two-dimensional screens. The game
has an emphasis on combat, with frequent monster encounters that can be dealt
with using bare hands or a laser pistol. The standard basic interaction,
inventory and multiple-choice dialogue are on offer. However, unlike later
adventure games by Holodream, the cursor does not change shape when hovering
over an object of interest, thus requiring a degree of pixel hunting.
