The player takes on the role of the title character who must negotiate a power station consisting of 18 separate levels (vaults). On each level the aim is to avoid a range of defences and press switches to shut down the vault.
Reception
Legacy
The game was hacked by Gábor Herczeg and re-released as a freeware "sequel" under the name Big Mac II. This game was in fact the same as the original but with extra levels.{{Cite web |url=http://plus4.emucamp.com/sd.php?pid=15195 |title=EmuCamp |access-date=2006-10-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070310210550/http://plus4.emucamp.com/sd.php?pid=15195 |archive-date=2007-03-10 |url-status=dead }}
