Zappy Zooks
In case you don't know what you're doing in Zappy Zooks, Romik provide this helpful tip: 'The object of the game is to get the highest score.' Well, just fancy that.
The game itself is no more original than its object: it is yet another version of PacMan. The monsters in this case are the Zooks of the title.
The player's man is Whirly, who, as his name suggests, whirls around trying to eat the dots in the maze.
Despite having several levels, Zappy Zooks never gets fast enough to be really engrossing. The graphics are no more than adequate and the sound is a complete waste of the Commodore's great potential.
