I played a variation of this eons ago on a TRS-80.
They look verrrry similar. I'm sure there are look and feel issues
here.

Aren't all these games clones of the Star Trek game written
in 1971?

There were a few embellishments along the way, but they are
all rewrites of the same game.

Yes. No surprise but the TRS-80 version was basically the same screen,
with variations and bugs. Lots of fun though. Back when your brain &
imagination was the graphic engine.

Just like Stan Freberg used to say about "watching" radio.  ;-)
