Summary

CD Games Begin

The Good

When I first saw the video bits in this game, I was blown away. I would hate to think how it would look today, but in 1992 on an old 486 system, it was a sight to behold.

The cat-and-mouse gameplay was simple but exciting; in fact, there were times I wish the rouge hunter character (the cat, if you will) would relent for a bit so I could pause.

The Bad

The lack of variety in some of the location designs made getting around a little difficult. The game sometimes felt like a maze -- and nothing bothers me more in games the running around a maze.

The Bottom Line

Simplicity ushers in a new world of gaming.
