STORY
Year 1990.
The world is divided into two main camps:
The ASU (Amstrad Socialist Union) and the NGPA (New Generation Platforms Alliancy).
There is a cold war between them, as NGPA wants to suppress and occupy the ASU countries.
In this context, the invaluable painting <Amstradian Excellence> from the famous painter Pablo di Casso was stolen from the ASU central museum by the NGPA secret forces.
The NGPA now exposes the painting in their museum, as loot.
Your mission is to go to the NGPA museum, retrieve the painting and return safely to the ASU capital.
