Prospector In The Mazes Of Xor

This Boulder Dash-inspired puzzler almost sneaked in at the bottom end of our All-Time Top 100 (it wasn't anything to do with us - guest 'expert' and PC Format editor Bob Wade pushed for it) funnily enough. It's a pretty and engrossing little game, and some of the puzzles will test your powers of lateral thinking to the limit. You control two characters, which gives things an original twist, and teamwork is essential if you want to get anywhere.

In fact, thinking about it, it shares several elements with The Hit Squad's recent Head Over Heels which we gave 92% a couple of issues ago. It's not as good as that, but you'll certainly get three quid's worth of entertainment out of it, especially with fifteen huge scrolling mazes to torment yourself in. Well worth rishing a bit of pocket money on.

The Bottom Line

Involving and tricky maze puzzle that's more than worth the paltry asking price. If your brain's been playing you up recently, this'll teach it a lesson.
