1983 MC Lothlorien Ltd (UK)

Help Micro Mouse avoid the mean bugs from stealing the letters and numbers from the BASIC program you are de-bugging on screen! When you succeed you will see the program being executed and move to the next program! How about that idea? This was made back in 1983 and I think this is one of the most original games ever made to the spectrum with nice cute colourful graphics. The game is full MACHINE CODE!

Guide Micro Mouse on his to quest to debug BASIC listings. Pick up and place the missing letters and numbers into the listing, as you dash about, killing bugs with your can of 'datakill' bug-spray. When the listing is complete you get to see it run, then move on to the next level.
This was a semi-educational game that was actually fun, and deserves some credit for it. It is nicely presented, original, and has character.
It is a little sparse and flickery, but cute, and good considering it is a 16k game from 1983.
A classic, not to be confused with the forgettable 1989 game with the same name.

Archaic , but pretty engaging !!

It's quite enjoyable but it becomes a bit bland after a little bit. But I will give credit for it being completely original for 1983.
