Review by Kim Robinson on 25th November 2007

An ancient map but one which retains terrific playability, Beta Two is a solid twenty minute romp through an alien infested moon base. Design is flawless, layout is original, gameplay exceeds all expectations. The thing features a neat subway system, bars, residential areas and control facilities - there's plenty of secrets to ferret out as well. Puzzles flow very smoothly, getting stuck isn't an issue - the author knows how to put maps together well. Check out this old classic.

:RE EDF SECURITY DOCKET #075140

 Duke, enclosed you will find your classisifed orders
 in a standard EDF security docket. Let me outline
 your mission as clearly as I can...on stardate 57839.6
 all contact was lost with moonbase Beta Two located
 on the moon. Nine years ago you were sent to it's
 predecessor Beta One to eliminate an alien invasion,
 it appears the same thing may have occured at Beta
 Two, and it is your misson to penetrate the facility
 and find out why all contact was lost. You will be
 transported to Beta Two by the dropship 'Leonov', which
 will immediately depart, as you will be alone on this
 mission. Find out what has occured and why all contact
 has been lost, if you discover an alien infestation,
 you are hereby authorized to use whatever force is
 necessary to eliminate it, up to and including the
 destruction of the base itself. The runabout class
 shuttle 'Yangtzee Kiang' has been verified to be
 intact in the hanger, use it for escape if necessary...
 or possible. Good luck Duke, all the hopes of Earth
 go with you!
