Hoodoo Voodoo

Hoodoo Voodoo looks like it's been converted from a ZX80, and a perfect job they've done too.

The Plot, if you can call it that, is very weak, proposing that you break a strange curse and also destroy some alien, for which you apparently receive a "big bonus".

The game is set on another world, which seems to be infested with exploding spiders and flying baked bean cans.

By collecting seven daggers of power, you can open the Portal that leads to the next level.

The game boasts that it has amazing scrolling, and I must admit that although the speed is comparable to a tortoise with no legs, it is smooth.

To sum up the game in simple terms, terrible graphics, naff sound (The first sound effect you hear must be at least 10,000 years old) and gameplay which is non-existent.
