Puffy's Saga

Puffy and his girlfriend, Puffyn, are trapped in a weird world of mazes. Quite how they came to be there is uncertain, but they're there and it's your job to get them out.

Twenty levels await the spherical sweethearts, levels which are jam-packed with all manner of hazards from locked doors to energy-draining forcefields and, of course, a whole stack of baddies which include scarlet ghosts and fire-breathing dragons.

To give you a helping hand there are a selection of items to collect, such as keys, extra weaponry (you begin with pretty feeble spitting capabilities!!) and, of course, loads of food to keep your pecker up.

Puffy's Saga is an out-and-out Gauntlet clone, but a very good one. Cute graphics, lots of sampled sound and music, and a hectic dash around the many mazes ensure enjoyment from the moment the game has finished loading.

Amiga

It looks cute and plays rather well indeed. One of the better Gauntlet derivatives available.
