1985 Mikrogen (UK)
by Chris Hinsley and Neil Struwick.
The third game in the Wally Week series.
Guide Wally's gang thru Wallyville, find the scattered combination numbers to open the safe and pay up the gang!
Seriously, this as to be one of the most emblematic games ever made to the Speccy, at least for me, excellent cartoon graphics, lots of color, a great city to explore, a good plot and an array of characters that everybody could relate to, reminding the TV series 'The Young Ones' (check out their game also).
This sort of game, was kind of a novelty back then, and even if you didn't know what to do, you could enjoy it just by exploring the city! Of course the writers didn't plan a Wally world just so you can wonder around the city, there is a plot, which I consider very compelling and with a nice depth to it. A true classic in my eyes!

Not as brilliant as Pyjamarama ... but still quite good !!
3,5 / 5 .
The third game in the Wally Week series gets complicated, as you must control all the Wally family: Wally himself, Wilma, Tom, Dick and Harry, picking up, combining & using objects as in the prequel Pyjamarama to get the different parts of a split combination to open a safe, all along a cute town: the bank, the butcher's, the gas station, ...
Bloody difficult game, but keeps the essence of the Wally games (good & detailed graphics, nice intro tune, ...). Cool to wander around the town.

I think I finished it in 2015 or 2016!!!!
This game is very funny, it containst a BSO on the original tape.
It is in my top 100, very difficult, very, very. I recomend it if you enjoy video-adventures only with very challenging mind games and a bit or arbitriourity because there are items in the screen, from time to time, that will kill you rapidly.
A spectrum classic.
