Back then this game felt huge, like there was a big sprawlilng world that I wasn't old/good enough to get to, and each new discovery was a thrill. Reaching the yellow guards was like finding El Dorado.
Easy to say "they don't make them like that anymore" but mostly it's for good reason. There're many elements of some of these games I'd like to see in a comtemporary game, though. Things are too overdone and in-your-face now, rife with gimmicks. I miss the old exploration styles.

Loved it! :) My first game on the Beeb I finished.

Wow, what is this?
Is this possibly a thinking man's action game?
I know! I finished this about 20years since I first played it, and all I got was disappointment and shattered dreams!
