Devils Causeway

Hugely inept and grossly misleading educational program that's notable only for its deceptive cover blurb and the scantily clad winch 'n demon featured on the pack art.

Those loading it in expectation of a fantasy adventure (for that's what it appears to be) will doubtless be well cheesed off when confronted by a simple line graphic and the likes of "Donald the Demon Dice Thrower" and "Simon Summer"... It quickly becomes apparent that the 'adventure' consists of little more than moving a figure along a line and reacting to a number of naff random challenges!

Simon poses simple arithmetic questions while Donald rolls his dice (?). The adjective pathetic springs readily to mind.
