An interesting twist on the maze game but a little too frustrating to be really enjoyable.

In this one you just have one adversary, a ghostly robot that resembles a Recogniser from the film, "Tron". It's able to move over the walls towards you as you're trying to navigate through to retrieve a data disc and exit key. It does move a lot slower than you, so it's not a completely lost cause.

The strategic element is in luring the Recogniser (there's no point in calling a spade a shovel here, this is from an era where nearly every second game was inspired by Tron in one way another) into a position which will allow you to dodge past it further through the maze. You have to be careful not to choose the wrong strategy though or you could trap yourself in a corner. There's no time limit so your only other enemy is really yourself.

It does have that "just one more go" element going for it, although the colour schemes of the maze (and use of the FLASHing attribute) do count against playing it for more than a couple of times a session.

Could be one of those games to have a couple of people takings turns yelling out how the player should be doing it!

Frustrating maze game loosely based on the film Tron. You must lead your character to the center of the maze while being chased by a sort ghost which can go through walls - while of course you can't! If you ever manage to accomplish your task, it goes on again and again...

Not one of the best games available for the 16K Spectrum - one of the worst, in fact.

Talk about a hard game.
And once you get there you start all over again in diferent colours. Yeay!

Got to say this game drove me up the wall. I can't find a way to get past the MCP, no matter what it always catches up to me in the end. This is too frustrating and unplayable that to call this rubbish is an understatement. Games like this are exactly why a crap games competition exists.
