The only clue to the object of this game was the title - and I couldn't wait to find out what lay behind it.

It turns out to be based on a highly original theme (for computer games anyway) of trying to deliver a box of 'Milky Chocs' before the lady returns home.

Unfortunately, though, it's not quite as simple as that, as various hazards have to be overcome and time is always running short!

And All Because...

The hazards employ some very amusing hi-res graphics and are in nine stages, with varying levels of difficulty. I found cross-country horse riding, hang gliding, swinging from ski-lifts and motor-cycle jumping particularly hard to master!

Only four keys are needed, although why the arrow keys for left and right movement were not used is a mystery.

Apart from this, and one of two minor spelling errors, this is a highly entertaining game for all the family. There is also a high score table feature to encourage competition, although B&H software always starts off in the top ten positions!
