Story overview
Following Pyrus Goldfire's escape at the end of
Aliens of Gold, British Intelligence initiated a large-scale search to capture him. For many years, no trace of the arch-villain could be found. In 2149, Dr. Goldfire is spotted in an abandoned training facility near the former STAR Institute. He is building an army stronger than anything witnessed before, in a second attempt to enslave humanity. Blake Stone is once again sent to stop the villain, with a direct order to find and terminate Dr. Goldfire, so that he would never threaten civilization again.
Gameplay
In contrast to
Aliens of Gold, in which the player has to retrieve the red key to unlock the next floor in the elevator, the player advances levels in
Planet Strike by way of the "Security Cube." The player must first locate a fission detonator, which is picked up. Then the player must locate the Security Cube itself and drop/arm the detonator. The player then must move Blake Stone quickly out of the way to avoid his being damaged by the blast. Once the Security Cube is destroyed, Stone can return to the transporter to access the next level. The game contains one linear campaign instead of six episodes as was in the original
Aliens of Gold, with regular boss battles. There are five new bosses, with two of them appearing on the last level.
