Fair game, simple technically but you can enjoy a good while.

Game included in the ZX Spectrum + User Guide Companion cassette, so for many people like me was the first game to be loaded in the speccy.

Coded by Pete Cooke (Academy, Earthlight, Juggernaut, ...) in 1984, it's a maze program made in BASIC, clearly inspired by the arcade classic Amidar, in which you must go across a labyrinth chased by a terrible UDG monster, trying to complete the different squares.

Other program included in the Companion cassette was a UDG utility which you could use it to easily change the characters graphics of the game, with no need of BASIC skills, so it was an unexpected cool feature of the game.

It hasn't aged well, but back in the day, when you've just unboxed and turn on your brand-new Spectrum +, anything was amazing at the TV screen.
