This is probably one of the best presented budget games out right now. It has lots of little frills like loads of different joystick/keyboard options a nice loading screen, built in speech and pretty "game over" sequence. But it still doesn't stop it being a bit like Pac-Man in reverse.

Instead of eating power pills, your little paintbrush leaves little dots behind as it dashes around the different screen patterns - chased by numerous nasties. Walter Wall has to decorate a 101 storey building, however his arch rival, Matt Gloss is determined to disrupt work that Walter has done.

His devious plot includes, bribing the building's security guard to arrest you, dragging a skinhead off the street to deface Walter's work with his aerosol can and he even releases a venomous snake into the building's corridors. Walter has some wallpaper paste which can be dropped to temporarily stick his pursuers to the floor.

Graphics are a bit small and fiddly. My version had the habit of flipping me onto the next floor even before I'd finished filling up the screen pattern I was playing. Not one that will keep you busy for long.
