Bobby has to rescue Judy who's boon looked up by Punch 16 screens away Bobby creaks (now shoes?) across the stage avoiding flying rotten tomatoes and custard pies coming from left and right, jumps over gaps. leaps onto flying carpets and, at the end of each screen, rocks the baby Once in a while a flying sausage (listen, don't tell mel) turns up and lets him short-cut to the next screen when in trouble. Holmets are given for completing a screen, within a time limit. The game gets off to a pretty poor start — who told Mr Micro that dark blue works against a black background?— and the graphics generally are pretty feeble, apart from the stage frame which is quite pretty. The real problem with the game is that Bobby is slow, painfully slow There's an appalling and infuriating lag between actions getting anywhere Of course, this could be deliberate, but who needs it? Also who needs incorrect instructions — 'H' doesn't hold the game. 'G' doesn't start it (Copy does) and Control 'D' doesn't give you the demo mode You ask me, this was a bit of a rush job. J.C., BIK |
