★ AMSTRAD CPC ★ GAMESLIST ★ THROUGH THE TRAP DOOR (c) PIRANHA/MACMILLAN ★ |
Amstrad Action |
The sequel is here!! Yippee! Piranha snap out another with the speed of a flying tortoise. How long's it been since Trapdoor? Anyway it's here now, and with a vengeance. Berk and Drutt are back with their comic actions and expressions. Don't you think that Bertie's so cute? Boni - sounds like the lead singer of a pop group - has been captured and taken down the trapdoor. Berk is visibly terrified, though Drutt seems undaunted by this truly awesome adventure that lies ahead of the daring duo. You start off by trying to get B'n'D through the trapdoor. A nice twist so early in the game! It's not hard. B'n'D quite easily survive the long fall and jump up ready for action. There are sweeties dotted around the screens, which have curious effects on Berk when he eats them. Some make him bounce, while others make him fly! There are some parts of the game where precision jumping is needed. This sometimes involves making sure that whoever it is that is jumping is at the right height. All will become clear in the game. The game has the same superbly animated and colourfully drawn graphics as its predecessor The sound is quite nifty too. The only reservation I have is about the gameplay. I found it quite difficult to make Drutt stay still! Anyway, worth a look for the enjoyment of seeing B'n'D bouncing and frolicking around the screen. CJB, AA
