It's a long time since I've seen anything as awful as this. Even the inlay card notes don't seem to be able to explain it adequately. The hero, Fu Kung, is an American detective of oriental extraction who has to check all the casinos in Las Vegas to see if they're honest. As a result, he must apparently collect cards, and avoid twirling thingies and electrocution as he makes his way under your control from one screen to another. OK, I have to admit it, the colours selected show up well on the green screen, but they look awful otherwise. The characters are incredibly crude, move jerkily, flicker, and are painfully slow. Even so, it's not easy to succeed on screen one, given the choice of hard or easy games on the equally awful introductory screen. Sound is minimal. I tried about eight times to get further, but frankly wouldn't have bothered had I not been reviewing. On the easy level, lives seem to be infinite. Not as good as some ZX81 games I've seen, what on earth are Amsoft doing releasing this on the machine that can depict Knight Lore, Sorcery, and Everyone's a Wally to perfection? Truly grim!

Page créée en 422 millisecondes et consultée 4115 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
