Summary

The PC version doesn't hold a candle to the Amiga classic.

The Good

The Amiga version of this game is one of my favorite games ever - it's unbelievably addictive, looks great and the music is a classic. The PC version, on the other hand, has nothing in common except for the name and the concept.

The Bad

The graphics are horrible and could've been done a lot better, even though it's CGA. The music stinks (but what did you expect), and the gameplay is not nearly as addictive as the arcade and the Amiga versions - in fact, you'll put the game aside after a few short minutes. Even the controls are completely horrible!

The Bottom Line

A really bad conversion anyone in his right mind would stay away from.
