Official description
The Story so far...
You are on a United Planets Freedom Forces mission when suddenly you see your worst nightmares come true...again.
Years ago you were the only survivor of the starship Avalon 1, when the evil "Machine" took out your comrades in an attempt to take over the galaxy.
All those years ago, you sought revenge and finally destroyed your enemy. Nobody expected a return of the dark forces, but...Old memories come flooding back, when you hear the last message of a beautiful girl. Desperately she cries for help, as her planet is taken over by the soldiers of the "Machine". Once again as Bren McGuire, you are the leader of the Freedom Forces in a crucial mission to destroy the grasp of evil for eternity.
The Freedom Forces fighters use the newest weapon technology available: The Turrican assault suits.
Equipped with multiple weapon capabilities and the mighty Plasma Rope to reach even deeply hidden areas, the Turrican assault suit gives one man the abilities of a whole army.
You have to find your way through 15 increasingly bigger levels, first to the bio-mech laboratories of The Machine and later the deep dungeons of the Alien Queen until you're able to confront your arch-enemy.
Don't hesitate to use all powers given to you...
The challenge awaits!

Comment
The last in the series on the Amiga. Nice graphics but the feeling is not as good as in the previous games.
