Wizards are a bad bunch to cross, especially if they're nasty, horrible ones like Zolt. But cross him you did, so he did something despicable to you in return.

what he did was use a spell on you, hence you have been transformed into a genetic freak. But that's not all! He's also thrown you into his gigantic molecular prison, called by those in the know as Octoplex. And it isn't a very nice place. So, not surprisingly, you must find your way out.

And while you may think that that's the opening for another shoot-'em-up, think again. Because Octoplex is an advanced version of the old Painter coin-op. It begins with an animated intro screen, unusual for a budget release, and while the game itself breaks no boundaries as far as programming is concerned, it's an enjoyable little romp which should keep the bairns quiet for a while.
