Mr. Wong is in trouble, collecting each item one piece at a time - because he has no shopping basket. Soap suds and a "possessed" iron try to stop him collecting from the five floors and taking the items to the chute at the top. The box of starch must be collected and fired at the attackers, temporarily stiffening and stunning them - but use sparingly. When exhausted, a new one appears to be collected before vanishing.

It is a pity that there are no instructions on screen and that at the end the game returns to the screen offering options of keyboard, Kempston joystick, or keyboard and Sinclair interface. Q, A, O, P and Bottom Row Fire are used.

Screen bottom shows number of five lives left, number of five starches left, hi-score and score with bonus score that starts at 990, reducing with time. After the clothing has been cleared a sack of laundry joins the chase.

Superb dissolves when life lost, nice tune which can irritate with constant repetition. A young lady visitor found it addictive! Sexist game?
