About Warplock

At the edge of the galaxy on the fringes of hyperspace and hypertime, your space craft is trapped in a bizarre space/time warp. You are engulfed by a band of space pirates bent on destroying you and your crew. It'll take some inside moves with your controller, and skill that's out of this world to get out of this one!
