    @Denis Stephenson, what glitch are you talking about? I've completed the game several times and I didn't encounter any glitch.

    Has a glitch in the game which means you can not finish it

    Just found this one in a box 30 years after I played it a lot. It's been my favourite game. One of four cassettes... Thank you for providing the dump!

    A real puzzler that kept me amused for a good time after I had finished it. I'd love to play this one more time...............

    This is one of the few games I played a lot. In fact I finished it a few times, trying to finish it faultless. For a budget game it was highly addictive. Highly recommended.

    A cleverly designed little title, that deserved more attention indeed: The shooter-like controls merely are a facade for a well-balanced mixture of puzzle and arcade game, that requires both reflexes and brains. A large variety of nifty ingame-features (like the scrolling monitor) adds the dose of diversion to keep one hooked, until you get a clean shot at the cat. ;) The sounds could be better, though, and more levels also would've been favorable. Nevertheless, i consider "Power Down" a sadly overlooked gem, which more than deserves a test run.
