There's problems galore in this superb adventure from P Lewis on the Amstrad. So hold onto your hats as we enter a parallel universe Whilst doing a spot of weeding on his allotment, Herbert falls through a tiny hole in the space-time continuum and finds himself in a parallel universe. Well, nearly parallel. More to the point, he finds himself in the clutches of the evil troll. The troll grabs his lapels, gazes into his eyes, (a dreadful experience for both parties!) and says, “Find my four treasures and leave them at the World's End or I will feed you to Tiddles!” Tiddles is a twelve foot sabre toothed tiger, so Herbert feels inspired to try! Unfortunately, Herbert is none too bright (speaking Trollish is his only accomplishment) so perhaps you would think for him!
