Hunchback

Hunchback is one of two new releases from Superior Software. It is an extremely good version of the arcade game where Quasimodo has to cross a series of walls in order to rescue his beloved Esmerelda. There are bonus points for completing each wall as quickly as possible, but you have to concentrate on the game so much that you forget about the bonus.

There are twelve walls to navigate, and once you have done this, you go back to the first wall and the game gets quicker (much quicker!).

This game makes a nice change from the "blast-'em-out-of-the-sky" type games and is thoroughly recommended.
