"Apart the game being just a little too hectic at times I thoroughly enjoyed playing it."
A&B Computing

"Missing this game will seriously damage your software collection!"

"It's driving me nuts, but I'm sure it'll still be driving me nuts in a year's time."
Electron User

"From the rolling demo and musical accompaniment to the clicking on and off of the keyboard LED as an invitation to enter your name in the high score table, this game bombards you with special effects."
The Micro User

Introduction

Bruce the bashful jet-ball is speeding along the technicoloured inter-Starian freeway en route to where his true love waits. But the course of true love never runs smooth, and the freeway surface is starting to crack up, with unpredictable results. So the stellar highway engineers have marked sections of the surface with different colours according to the different effects that they have on progress. Certain sections slow you down, speed you up, or make you bounce. Other sections can have the disastrous effect of reversing your ball controls - while others are just plain deadly!

Sphere Of Destiny is superfast arcade action for the BBC - including Master - and Electron. There are 64 stretches of freeway to test your reactions and dexterity to the limit - with a fulfilling reward for those who can make it through!"

Bruce the bashful jet-ball is speeding along the technicoloured inter-Starian freeway en route to where his true love waits. But the course of true love never runs smooth, and the freeway surface is starting to crack up, with unpredictable results. Rather than set up an intergalactic contraflow system, the stellar highway engineers have marked sections of the surface with different colours according to the different effects they have on progress...

Blue O.K. No problem.
Yellow O.K. No problem.
Black Black Hole. Avoid these sections at all costs.
Red Slows Bruce down.
Green Gives Bruce a boost of speed.
Magenta Gives Bruce a bounce.
White O.K. Gives a small bonus.
Cyan Reverses Bruce's speed and steering controls - aagh!

Bruce has to travel 64 eons before he gets to his true love - and his reward! (In the year 2129, women seem to go for the oddest balls) Lucky Bruce has three lives, and your job is to help get him there - or at least as far as possible!

Note - Every self-inflicted bounce will reduce your lifespan more quickly!
