Generació Digital: The Video Game

Generació Digital, which I guess translates as Digital Generation, is a radio show broadcast by Catalunya Radio. The show is about video games and also has a presence on Facebook, YouTube and Twitch. The team who run the show seem to be a happy bunch judging by their photos online.

They have proudly released this Spectrum game where you can choose to be one of the members of the team who must progress through several mazes in the quickest time possible. Whoever you choose to be the only difference is how you look. I like to pick Gina Tost because it sounds like toast, and who doesn't love toast?

Maze enemies are spinning disks which make you dizzy on contact, and no I don't mean the egg. You need to retrieve cubes located in the corners of the maze until a floppy disk appears near the centre. Collect this to go to the next maze. After you have collected the floppies from each of the game's mazes, you have completed the game and are given your finish time.

This game is very passive. Nothing is ever damaged or dies. Fortunately you can press 5 at any time to quit. It's distinctly average. However, if I was Spanish or could speak the language, it would probably push me into checking out the show and related stuff online if I didn't know about it already.
