In your wizardly haste, you seem to have locked yourself off of a lot of places! This is unfortunate because now you'll have to dodge some monsters to get to your destination!

Using simple directional controls and your magical ability to slam head-first into solid walls, you must navigate mazes to reach a portal. Sounds simple enough and it is at first but the difficulty ramps up quickly.

The game is simple and risks getting repetitive but it's short enough to not outstay its welcome. The music is barely there, resorting to a simple background beat after an initial flurry, but the graphics are delightfully cute. A fun distraction for ten minutes or so.

Do not play this on a 6128; it won't load and snapshots quickly corrupt. On a 464, the game is a fun little puzzler that won't take you long to complete if you're playing version 1.0. For version 1.1, you'll have a harder time and I'm pretty sure that there's a screen in that version which is impossible to complete.

I love that the wizard looks like Orko from He-Man, but the game is just a basic puzzler with no added dimension. This style of game has been done countless times before, and this variant offers nothing unique.

It's not very long either, so once you've played it through, it's highly unlikely that you'll load it up ever again.
