+Title: Drill a 3D alien moon, become an interplanetary hero!
+author: gu3

+
+_Driller_ aka _Space Station Oblivion_ (in the US), the FIRST supported game of the [Freescape engine](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Freescape), is ready for public testing!
+
+Published in 1987 by Incentive Software Limited, this revolutionary new engine allowed players to explore a solid 3D graphic environment with complete freedom of movement for the very first time in videogame history.
+
+A new threat emerges after humanity abandoned a dying Earth to establish a new home on planet Evath. Evath's moon Mitral has turned into a gigantic gas time bomb. A meteor is also due to impact Mitral in the next several hours. You were chosen to secure each of Mitral's 18 sectors by positioning a drilling rig over the gas pockets in each sector before the meteor strikes.
+
+Solve challenging riddles by relying on geological clues, intuition, or good old trial and error. To survive your mission, find Rubicon crystals to restore energy and destroy (or avoid) the Laser Beacons and Skanners left behind by the Ketars. Good luck!
+
+Our reimplemented engine features graphics using software (TinyGL) or hardware mode (OpenGL) at arbitrary resolution. The initial _Driller_ support is limited to DOS (EGA mode), Amiga and AtariST releases, but we hope to be able to add more soon! Please [contact us](https://www.scummvm.org/contact/) if you have some other release.
+
+To play any of these supported releases, you will need a [daily development build](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/#daily). As always, please submit your bug reports to our [issue tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/).
