A game with a difference - it speaks to you! Yes,
that's right this game uses digitised speech on several
occasions to add atmosphere to this exploration of underground caverns
where you look for gold and jewels whilst fighting off some very nasty
and unfriendly creatures. The Megawump has rounded up a gang of
bloodthirsty monsters who raid villages at night and store their spoils
in musty caverns deep underground. You must collect these treasures and
recover sufficient magical objects to be able to destroy the evil
Megawump. You will discover gold and jewels and fight off pythons,
trolls and hydras in your quest. A nice game that shows how you can
include digitised speech in Basic programs. Also on this disk are four
other interesting games. HERO finds you in charge of a rescue helicopter
taking people off the top of a burning building. You must monitor your
fuel as the time counts down and the flames get higher. SKYSCRAPER is on
a similar theme except this time the people are jumping off the building
and you are in charge of the rescue blanket below. No organised rescue
this one, just loads of panic stricken people jumping off the building.
Can you catch them all? MINI BILLIARDS is just what it says, a nice game
of billiards with some beautifully smooth scrolling balls that you will
find quite a challenge. Finally there is VALIANT in which you explore
the woods in search of keys and gold whilst avoiding the monsters. This
one uses a small window on the main screen to excellent effect and is a
very well designed game.
