goblinish, it looks like you like to convert old Polish logical games for Spectrum... First Rogue, now Spych.

Maybe you could try with Heartlight? ;)

No, the game is only distributed as cassette + CD-ROM with files for emulators and/or memory card-based interfaces.

It is offered together with a revised version of Death Pit by Clive Townsend, of which Doom Pit is the official sequel.

Neat. Took me a shocking 34 moves and was rewarded by a nice wobbly fairground style beeper ditty.

Is there just one level?

Nice game but seems quite hard. Very easy to make a false move and get stuck.

Animation of main sprite should be corrected in my opinion. The frames of animation change too fast. It's especially visible at
the hood which flickers totally crazily when you move.

The difficulty is fine (I have solved the first 5 levels quite quickly), much easier than Beams of Light.

(BTW g0blinish, didn't you promise a RZX for this game? ;-))

Still busy [mention]g0blinish[/mention]!

Can you provide a link to the Tensoft original please.

I agree with Ralf about the sprite animation in Magic. I think more subtle animation would be less distracting.

I know Slither is just a demo but it's great! Or it would be if the keys were less hypersensitive.

idpixel.ru mentioned origin of the game, so it is easy to find solutions, except one or two levels.

I have discovered a bug. If you collect all disks you can go through the mirrors to the next level.

About Magic: here is animation what I change to original:

If you like it, I'll replace graphics.

If not, I have to ask help graphicians to draw sprites:
