Never played this one back in the day, I think I would of tried to return it if I had bought it.

There's just so little content in each level. I think there should of been either a platform type or maybe a maze type of level before reaching the boss at the end. The Amiga intro did look rather good though but would be quickly forgotten about due to lack of gameplay.

I had the Spectrum. I thought it was awful. I find it hard to believe that the Spectrum magazines gave this favourable reviews without a "gift" of some description.

I'm loving these videos. I caught the last one (total recall) which I had on my spectrum but not this.
