Story
The player assumes the role of a normal middle class man named P.J. Barrett. After a mixup in the local repair shop he accidentally brings home, instead of his, a TV set that belongs to a barbarian warrior. When he switches on the TV he is unexpectedly sucked through the screen into the planet Daltere where he finds out that an alien named Helmar has stolen “the jewel of light” and that this world is in danger. Thus he is forced to take on a mission to free it from tyranny and to save the galaxy.
Reception
Scorpia of Computer Gaming World wrote that Altered Destiny "leaves me with mixed feelings". She stated that the graphics were merely "okay" and the pathing was "ridiculous and frustrating", but concluded that it was "still a game worth playing" because of its difficulty level, "bizarre and alien" setting, "tough but fair" puzzles, and humor.
