Reviews for Lightfarce (#2887)

Annoying big yellow sprites and items against a black star field, and the wit seems confined to the title: you just seem to fly endlessly among space donuts and cosmic cookies firing at the nasties, improbable magnets with eyes, with not much satisfaction and absence of variety. If there's anything else to it, I've missed it.

Note:
zx1 in the WoS forum told me: "Lightfarce was a 'hidden' game in Zub. You could load it by typing in a piece of BASIC before starting the tape."

1986 Mastertronic Added Dimension (UK)
by John & Ste Pickford and David Whittaker

This was written in a afternoon and was intended as an hidden game to the game Zub.
Later was released as Zarjas with a few enhancements, but the games goal seems to be just the score. A bit pointless.
