Graphics and Sound
The game world consists of a 3D polygon terrain with islands, hills and lakes. In addition to various buildings and vehicles, also some trees, plants and rocks are modeled in 3D. Use of colors is limited, and shades of green, orange and blue are emphasized. The game features a 24-hour clock, and the brightness of the environment depends on the time of day. Flares can be used to illuminate the surroundings during night.
The only music in the game is the main theme composed by Martin Walker, and it can be heard during the title screen. Sound effects include engines, gunfire, explosions, waves and squawks of seagulls. Although visually the Amiga and Atari ST versions are almost indistinguishable from one another, the sound effects are slightly different on the two platforms.

Famous quotes containing the word sound:
“Knighterrantry is a most chuckleheaded trade, and it is tedious hard work, too, but I begin to see that there is money in it, after all, if you have luck. Not that I would ever engage in it, as a business, for I wouldn’t. No sound and legitimate business can be established on a basis of speculation. A successful whirl in the knighterrantry line—now what is it when you blow away the nonsense and come down to the cold facts? It’s just a corner in pork, that’s all.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
