Stringer

Hold the front page! Film star Polly Platinum is in town. Ideal for a front page picture for the Daily Blurb. But getting this exclusive is easier said than done - as ace reporter and photographer Stringer finds out.

As the paper's deadline nears, Stringer has the hard task of finding the reclusive star in the penthouse suite of a local hotel.

Not only that, he must also collect his equipment - camera, flash bulb, press pass and the key to the suite - which has been hidden in various rooms of the hotel.

And just to complicate matters, Stringer is chased from floor to floor by hotel staff determined to throw him out.

The game features cartoon-type characters, five skill levels and full joystick control.
