>Matt Trakker receives a message on the MASK computer - "We have >kidnapped Scott Trakker and are holding him to ransom on the moon. >Unless you surrender your entire forces to Venom, you will never see >him again. Signed Miles Mayhem." >Matt is faced with a terrible dilemma. To agree to Venom's demands >would give them total control over the Peaceful Nations Alliance,  >but to ignore their demands would surely mean Scott's life. >Can you, as Matt Trakker, rescue Scott and return him safely to Earth? > -- <cite>Cassette cover</cite> Beginning in 1987, British software house Gremlin Graphics released a  trilogy of computer games based on the M.A.S.K. franchise for various  8-bit computer formats. The final game in the trilogy ***"MASK III – Venom Strikes Back"*** was released in 1988 and was a 2D horizontal shoot-em-up. The premise of the game is that VENOM have kidnapped Scott Trakker and are holding him on the moon. The player controls Matt Trakker (unrecognizable in a space suit with helmet) through a series of static screens featuring platform puzzles and obstacles which must be overcome using the powers of the various masks. The player can hold up to four masks at a time, but can only use the power of one at a time. The masks can also be exchanged at certain points in the game. This game received the best reviews of the trilogy, despite the deviation from the franchise's storyline and style. Source:[Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.A.S.K.#Video_games)
