A little too difficult for my taste ... but a nice piece of early Spanish software.

Colorful ... and with everything working !!

1985 Dinamic Software (Spain)
by Victor Tejedor, Florentino Pertejo, Santiago Morga and Snatcho

Perhaps the best Spanish game ever written on the Speccy, at least I think so.
It's as hard as any game by our Spaniard friends, but a lot smoother and playable.
The main character is kind of funny and the animation quite good, but he looks completely different from his previous adventures.
If the game was a little easier I would rate it higher, instead I think a 4 is better suitable.

Good but taxing platformer.
Its frustrating difficulty makes it addictive. It's a challenge.

Charming platformer that plays with fun and fluidity but which errs on the side of too difficult, especially with a steep learning curve that makes it unnecessarily hard to get into.

Curses!

Dinamic's first incursion in plattform games was a great success. And one of its best works. It's the third in a series of games starring adventurer Johnny Jones (the previous were Saimazoom and Babaliba) who this time has a really hard challenge, a linear plattform game that consists of 44 bloody difficult screens. Back in the day, I got a copy of this game with infinite lives. Even so, it was really hard to reach the end. At the middle of the game, the random colour of a gem is the key to choose the correct colour in a later screen to go on the game. In those days I played with a B/W telly so it was almost impossible to continue!

Graphically good, and as I said before, in spite of its difficulty, a great game.
