Well folks. it's cuddly bug-eyed beastie from Betelgeuse time. Borzak, the afore-mentioned illegal immigrant has crashed on earth and you must help him to survive the deadly fauna of earth.
These are frogs, dragon flies, ducks. spiders. ditches. walls and other appalling hazards.
You get a side view of our friend as the scenery scrolls smoothly right to left. You avoid the opposition by jumping, ducking and accelerating or decelerating. You also have an anti-grav device to extend jumps. There are six levels with varying difficulty
The graphics are fair and Borzak is a rather twee with a reciprocating nose. The animation is tolerable but unspectacular. The background is remarkably sparse with just a simple green bit of grass. A few trees and houses would have helped maintain interest. I found the control awkward. The duration of jump is unpredictable, particularly with anti-grav. This leads to an increasing sense of frustration resulting in overwhelming irritation.
Overall this game is a nice idea with a weak implementation. It doesn't really offer anything unusual or out of the ordinary.
