Jonny Quest. Strangest sprite engine I've ever seen on speccy. Sprites big enough and perfectly animated, 1pixel scrolled, scene graphics are very good, game itself is more than average.

The game itself is based on hanna barbara's oldest cartoon Jonny Quest, and for a budget game it's good enough. Not perfect, but good.

So it is good.

Not very appealling at all, the gameplay is just too much of a bore to me. Graphics aren't the best either, not attrocious but the sprites are very odd for a game written in 1990/1991. Not for me this one.

I'm quite surprise on how low W.O.S. users rated this game (5,42 at the time I wrote this review), contrary to Magazine reviewers back in 1991.
I'm also quite surprised with the quality of it. The animations are great and the pixel scrolling is simply superb, one of the best I've come across. It's a delight just walking and jumping around. The coder has done a great job. As for the gameplay, I haven't played enough so far, so I can't talk much, what I can say is that the platform variation is superb and the collecting-and-using objects, together with the selection menu, functions quite well too. There is a wide map to discover and a lot of exploring to do. Although not particularly original, as I see a few similarities with Saboteur, It's highly playable and very well coded.

4,5 points

Nicely drawn and animated arcade/adventure.
