A truly fantastic game on the Spectrum. Superb graphics and sublime gameplay makes this a fine piece of work. Two thumbs up.

Very good arcade, well designed and addictive.

Technically good, and even with some excellences.. like incredible explosions, big enemies ( big snake-dragons ) and good 8-way scroll.

Graphics could be slightly better, but they look strong and with personality. If the game would had one more level... it would have been from anthology.

Colourful and relatively smooth, but that giant bat and those green barriers are an excessive nuisance.

3,5/5

A nice surprise I got from this otherwise unknown game to me. An addictive arcade platformer, filled with nice looking monsters, bats, etc. It's very smooth and fluid, which makes it a treat to play, also the action is straightforward, you rapidly know what your goal is, so you don't waste time wandering around trying to figure what to do.
