This is a PC game: it uses the keyboard the way it did under MS-DOS, and the mouse where the game supports it. Click the game screen first so it gets your key presses.
Many DOS games start with a menu or ask a question first — read the screen and answer with the keyboard. Arrow keys, Enter, Space, Ctrl and Alt are the usual game keys.

What the critics said
Amiga Computing stated, "The cinematic feel has been captured well and really makes the game stand out from the usual film tie-in nonsense," concluding that it was probably "the best tie-in in the whole world."

Paul Presley of The One wrote a positive review of the Amiga/Atari ST version, praising the "suitably gloomy atmosphere" but criticizing the "seemingly everlasting night", as well as the shoot 'em up and hand-to-hand combat levels.
— The One (Paul Presley)· about another version
Andy Hutchinson of Amiga Format praised the "Tense and atmospheric scenarios," and called the game "One of the most original film licences around for a long time."

— Mean Machines Sega, 1994· about another version
