Cytron

A middle secret research center, designed to carry out shady experiments, is being viciously attacked by its robotic workforce. The mutinous mechanoids are assaulting the scientists that work in the center and releasing the experiments. The whole complex and its entire human staff will be wiped out in hours... if you don't save them. Controlling Cytron- a sophisticated dual role robot- you must enter the complex, navigate its many enemy-infested regions and rescue the scientists, before the center is totally destroyed. Using Cytron's unique Divide Device you race against the clock to solve a plethora of puzzles, work with multifaceted weapon technology and fight armies or pernicious enemies in your last-ditch bid to save the oppressed scientists. Cytron: Double the action! Double the gameplay!

HISTORY

Cytron is a video game developed by Lunatic Software for the Amiga and published by Psygnosis in 1992.

Gameplay

Cytron is a futuristic Gauntlet-type maze action/adventure game. The story tells that on a distant research facility, the robots serving the researchers have gone haywire and have taken the researchers hostage. Earth sends a remote-controlled robot called Cytron to rescue the researchers.

The player controls Cytron either with a joystick or a mouse. A novel idea is that Cytron is able to split into two smaller robots, Cyt and Ron, which can be controlled individually, and later joined again. Both Cyt, Ron and Cytron can use various weapons, and there are computer terminals in various places in the mazes, allowing access to various facilities.
