Reviews for Auf Wiedersehen Monty (#328)

I'm not sure if this was the best Monty game, but it was the one I spent by far the most time playing. One of the great, quintessential Spectrum platformers, being smooth, infuriatingly difficult in places, and with humorous puzzles.
Graphics are not fancy, but nice, neat and very smooth. Audio is also quite good. Level designs are challenging, but fun. This game draws you in, and evokes the feeling of exploring a cosy little 8-bit world.

A bit difficult but still charming and complex video-game starring Monty Mole .

Recommended ! Worth a try , for sure !!

A classic platform challenge ...


4,5 out of 5 .

Monty's final game (Impossamole doesn't count) sees him travelling around Europe trying to make enough money to retire on a Greek island. There's some great touches like Monty breakdancing or drinking the wine and getting drunk. The 128K music is great or you can choose to turn it off and instead have the national anthem play each time you enter another country! There are plane tickets dotted around and you can use these to fly between airports. Here you're presented with an admittedly dull mini game whereby you have to fly into the back of other planes.
This is a still a difficult game and it's hard to imagine anyone completing it without cheating but it's a lot easier to make progress than in previous Monty Mole games. This is easily the best game in the series. Finally Monty got the game he deserved. What a shame it was to be his last!

I found the game to be way too difficult to be satisfied with. The graphics are great and the music is excellent, but the gameplay never did it for me.

Supersmooth, cute and beautifully animated, but it doesn't grab me much.
3,5/5
