More games from the Germans who have the knack of
writing some top class games in Basic. WOMBEL is a strange game in which
you guide a duck round (maybe an eider?) to melt various ice blocks and
collect some gems, takes some thinking to work out just what you are
supposed to achieve but very well written. In BANKPANIC you must shoot
robbers but not customers as they pop up like a life size shooting range
with characters the full height of the screen. An excellent game that Is
similar to a military or police shooting range where innocent or not so
innocent figures leap out at you. You must decide good or bad,
instantly. JUMPER2 and NASEN JACK are two platform games in one of which
you use lifts to collect treasures on each level and in the other you
collect pots of gold in an underground cavern making sure you avoid the
bats. As the last pot of gold is collected a ladder descends enabling
access to another level. A couple of well written platform games. The
final one is FOOTRACE, a simple 'bet on the horses' game for several
players, except there are no horses, just runners!
