                           -----------------


This is another game from Brian Bell, of Mr AMOS fame, programmer of the
wonderful Charlie Chimp series of games.  This is one of his early
creations and, quite frankly, it shows...

The graphics are extremely poor in comparison to his other works.  The
animations are crap and the game has a certain cheapness about it.  The
sprites are garishly coloured and seem to have been scrawled very quickly
in Deluxe Paint.  [Actually Brian drew the graphics himself, before Ashley
Cunningham began working for him - Ed]

The sound is severely lacking with only a few samples accompanying the
`action' - none of which, I may add, add anything to the atmosphere.  As
for that crap jumping sound - aghhhhhhhh..........

The game appears to have no real gameplay: you walk, you jump, you get
butted in the knee off a green splodgy thing, it's all highly exciting I
don't think.

Sorry Brian but I am afraid it is all soooooooooo average.  However, you do
get the excellent Seemore Doolittle's Underwater Capers on the disk as
well.  Thank goodness for that.
