It's nice to play a game which is just great fun and doesn't involve any violence.
The scenario is a little abstract. It involves helping a Rastafarian called Rankin
Rodney retrieve four musical instruments. The emphasis is on music and colours.
Each screen has music (there are 16 different tunes). A nice touch is that each
tune consists of three parts (bass, drums and melody) and the music changes depending
on what is going on.
The instruments sit in areas of different colours and our hero must move around on
moving walkways of coloured discs. Movement is impeded by several features. First,
there are two nasties: "bum notes" and an unnamed character, who will try to take
the instruments back. Dangerous creatures called "distortion" will take one of your
lives if you touch them. Finally, you can only move on one colour at a time and it is
necessary to change colours from time to time. Full options for difficulty, starting
screen, number of lives and pause.
Technically, a very smooth program with excellent music, superb colour and hilarious
animation.
