Squisher and Squasher are two evil little creatures who are determined to destroy you as you move around a maze, trying to survive for as long as possible. As you make your way around the maze, you try to eat as many dots as you can (by running over them). Each dot you run over adds to your score. You do not get points just for surviving. As Squisher and Squasher move in towards you, they leave a trail of new dots. Therefore, if you can fool them into crossing areas which you have already 'eaten clean', you'll find more dots to eat. You move around using the cursor (arrow) keys. You'll find that giving them clean 'taps', rather than leaning on a key continuously, will give the best results. The character which represents you (and which begins in the top left hand corner) will continue to move in the direction you've sent it, until you press an arrow key indicating that you wish to move in a new direction. The maze changes slightly from game to game, and neither you, nor Squisher and Squasher can move through the fences. I Iowever, while you can only move up, down, right or left, the two protagonists can move along these directions, as well as along the diagonals if they wish. Amstrad Omnibus
