MOST arcade games rely too heavily on superb reactions mixed with a touch of luck. Patrick obviously became a little fed up with this, and he has written a short game that requires a bit more thought. You are stuck on a small island which, as you've probably guessed, is inhabited by zombies. These move closer and closer to you, and your only chance of survival is to lead them into the pits scattered about. These kill zombies falling into them. Movement is controlled by entering the compass direction when asked. The zombies will then all move one place towards you, and if you've chosen correctly a couple of them will fall to their deaths. If two zombies bump into each other, one of them will be obliterated. You aim is to last as long as possible, and try to kill them all off. If you manage it, you'll move on to the next screen. A fair amount of thought and planning is required to survive in this extremely addictive game. CPC Computing
