Yeah!
Top game for 1983, IMHO. I spent hours on that.

Decent game.

I've just realised the title is a pun on 'Nervous Disposition'. That's as terrible as the game looks

Well known game, from a very well known publisher, during the best years of the Speccy.
Screenshot from gameplay, right at the start of the game:

I think this has become a bit of a Speccy meme now ... it almost begs for a poll, asking people if they knew about
Guardian II.

Savage?
What throws the first pic off is that a good chunk that appears to be part of the sprite is actually colour clash with the bricks!

Yep.
I was going to either go with the sword on the wall (possibly too obscure) or the axes (too easy) so went with the enemy sprite.

I did have to suffer through a few minutes of this game to get that screenshot, so I hope you're all appreciative and don't guess it too quickly.
