River Rescue [White Label]
You are the owner of the fastest power boat in the region. Your knowledge of the treacherous river and the dense jungle which engulfs it on both sides is second to none, that is why you got the job of bringing out a group of scientists who have got themselves trapped in the upper reaches of the river. With supplies running desperately low it is essential that you don't waste time finding them and delivering them to the safety of the hospital. Relying entirely on your lightning reactions you will have to steer your boat at speed between floating logs, crocodiles and rocks as well as avoiding the river banks themselves. To help you clear a passage up the river your boat is fitted with a powerful fast action 30 mm cannon. Your reward for a successful job is based upon the number of scientists rescued and how fast you do it. Your rivals however are out to stop you at all costs. At any moment their aeroplanes could fly overhead, dropping deadly mines in your path. This will mean the end of you unless you can blast them out of the way. Sounds easy? Try it!
