The instructions for this game sounded familiar. An Intergalactic Cheese-snuffler marooned in a maze, with a lot of red cheeses to eat and a few green ones, which temporarily change the Red Meanies which are chasing you into edible Blue Loonies - well, the cheese bit is new, but the rest?

It isn't just another Pac-man, though, because this time your view of the maze is three-dimensional. This small change completely alters the character of the game; now a good sense of direction matters more than your speed of reactions.

I was rather surprised to find there is no joystick option. You use the F key to go forwards, comma to turn left and full stop to turn right. It would have been nicer to be given a choice of keys. The other notable omission is difficulty levels.

The graphics and sound effects are reasonable, and the instruction leaflet is clear. A good game, but not a classic.
