This came out at the same time as Taskset's excellent Super Pipeline and has been overshadowed by it as a consequence: I reckon it's the better game.

You have to manoeuvre Rankin' Rodney through a moving maze to rescue four musical instruments. Sounds easy? Each instrument is in a different coloured area: and you can only jump onto the conveyor belt if the same colour is before you, or you can get onto a four-colour square.

There are twenty different mazes to get through and each has its own quirks - you must avoid the dischords and skinheads who will take the instruments back, and you've only a short time to get them all. The music and graphics are superb (you do need a colour TV to play this one as several colours appear the same on a black and white set). Overall? Terrific!
