Gremlins

Gremlins, the adventure game is now on sale - hot from the keyboard of Brian Howarth - Adventure International's best known UK programmer.

The game follows the plot of the film closely. Too closely in the view of our office adventure expert.

The aim of the game is to help the friendly Mogwai - Gizmo, to defeat the evil Gremlins led by the evilest one of all - Stripe.

You play the part of Billy who has been tricked by the Gremlins into feeding them after midnight. This caused them to multiply and they are now causing havoc all over the small town of Kingston Falls.

Gremlins has no music or sound effects but it is faultlessly logical. No silly red herrings or doubtful solutions. Another nice touch is the direction indicator which tells you what direction to travel in. Beginners only, seasoned adventurers will sail through.
