Side-scroller; fly a spaceship on bombing raids over enemy territory, dodging and/or shooting enemy ships and collecting power-ups; land (carefully) on your own turf; repeat. Graphics and sound quite good, but silly. The most fun, when you can manage it, is cruising along with auto-strafe and invincibility.

Crystal Quest is an action computer game for the Apple Macintosh and Apple IIgs. It was notable for its fast-paced gameplay, and for being the first game to support the color displays on the Macintosh II.

Addictive gameplay. 'Drive' a little circle-thing around a playing field, shooting at any enemies that appear. Collect the things and crystals for points and to pass on. Works great! - Wall Street

This is a classic. Looks like it has been overlooked not appearing on the highest rated or most popular sections! - Joshua
