This Jukka Tapanimaki (Remember Netherworld?) blast casts you as a green person making his escape from an alien complex, which contains a large ticking bomb. As he lopes and leaps along each corridor, various greeblies try to jump our alien chum, draining his energy if they touch him. When all his strength is gone, one life goes down the lavvy, and it's back to the start of the level.
After Netherworld, I expected a lot of this, and I'm happy to say I wasn't disappointed. Right from the beginning, Zamzara is tough, but once you've learned how to jump and use the extra weapons it's a tasty sponge cake of fun, upon which nifty graphics and a couple of Maniacs of Noise grooves are the icing.
A simple but addictive blast, well worth the dinky price tag.
