DOS version
An interesting, different platform game.
The Good
Well, the creator spent a pretty time animating the characters and it shows.. the animation is incredibly fluid and good-looking.. modern people would probably not believe that it has been drawn instead of 3d-rendering..
Also, the motif has been captured well.
The Bad
Well, the dungeons all look the same and one or two of the puzzles can cause you to scratch your head for some time..
The Bottom Line
An interesting platform game that has next to nothing to do with 'regular' platform games like Sonic and Mario.
