By the author of Rick Dangerous (you can recognise the style, can’t you?), this little platform game, packed with secret passages, shows character. The music is pleasant … for about five minutes. On the other hand, you can’t activate the sound effects at the same time. Other complaints: repetitive action and the character’s stiffness.
Still original, though, is the strength gauge, which allows you to perform different kicks or punches depending on how long you hold down the button.
