Moonwalker (Kixx)

You don't see many moonwalkers these days, do you? This is because moonwalking wears out your shoes at least a third faster than ordinary strolling.

Plucky Michael Jackson is still at it though and you control him as he wobbles around four locations, looking for the four parts of a rabbit costume to wear (he's as mad as a battleship. you see!). It's a top-view job and you must simply avoid the baddies as you steer around the obstacles on your quest.

Not riveting, eh? Well, there's a distinct lack of excitement, as someone called Mr Big sends his hordes after you. The trouble is, it's not very responsive or quick. If you see someone coming, you moonwalk the other way. The views aren't particularly spectacular and if you're an insomniac, you'll have found a 2.99 cure.

Spendthrifts like me will be pleased to hang onto their hard-won moolah rather than take this mangy trip to Jacksonville.
