#32: Damocles (Novagen, Amiga, 1990)

Damocles isn’t only about exploring, though. The metaphorical dangling sword of the title is a comet called Damocles, headed towards the planet Eris. The President has set you the task of doing something about it, for a substantial reward, but you arrived a bit late, so you only have three hours left. After a bit of introductory admin, you are provided with a key for a ship that can travel at near-light speeds, but you have to deal with the effects of special relativity. Do what I did, go straight to full speed, and unwittingly set the controls for the heart of the sun in the process, and the hours whizz by. Waste too much time and (spoiler alert) ERIS DIES.
