Entertaining and very attractive... One of the best budget games for ages. Read Review
The characters are cute and nicely animated, and the castle backdrops are excellent. Read Review
Although the monochromatic layout may be a bit old hat, Olli And Lissa is a perfectly acceptable platform game. Read Review
A graphically good but dull pot boiler with cute characters. Very predictable. Lousy plot. Well executed. Read Review
The game is exceptional value for money and a worthy challenge to boot. Read Review
The animation of your control character is brilliant, the closest I have seen to cartoon quality yet, and the death and success routines are amusing, and pure genius. Read Review
Today human beings are only scared of invisible ghosts...
Amongst the barren heights and rugged rocks of the Scottish Highlands, there is situated Shilmore Castle. The Castle is under threat of being purchased and shipped stone by stone to America by Eugene Portcullis the third (Jnr) a mega-millionaire.
Alarmed by this, Olli and Lissa rush to help their friend Sir Humphrey, the castle ghost, who was somewhat upset by the prospect of forced emigration to the New World. Sir Humphrey decides that today, Human Beings are only scared by invisible ghosts. You must collect eight ingredients for a potion to make the ghost of Shilmore Castle invisible and save the day.
You can use either keyboard or joystick to guide Olli on his quest through Shilmore Castle. When the game starts, Sir Humphrey will tell you which item needs to be dropped into his cooking pot. You have to avoid other, not so friendly, ghosts on your way around the castle, and there will also be a time limit for each task.
A very difficult platfrom game, can get annoying on later levels when touching the wrong part of the screen can mean instant death. But does have nice graphics and colour.
