Dynamite Dan

If you thought you'd seen the last of platform games, think again. Mirrorsoft keep the platform style alive and kicking with Dynamite Dan.

The scenario goes like this. The dastardly Dr Blitzen, aided by his glamorous assistant Donna, has devised plans for a deadly mega-ray and plans to take over the world with it.

Top agent, Dynamite Dan, has been sent to find and destroy the plans which are hidden somewhere with Dr. Blitzen's weird and wonderful clifftop HQ.

Dynamite Dan

Dan lands his airship - shades of the latest Bond movie here! - on top of Blitzen's mansion and you take over guiding our hero through the many hazard packed rooms.

There are items to collect and food to be eaten to keep Dan's strength up during his top secret mission.

The graphics are better than average and the presentation is nice. If you're a platform fan then this is the game for you.
