Probably the best game I've seen for the BBC so far. Read Review
Another variation on the Pengo theme... Very enjoyable to play. Read Review
A very good version of an arcade original with some interesting original touches of its own. Read Review
Not for the novice... Excellent graphics and good use of sound combined with a well implemented twist of an established theme. Read Review
During the period of years from 2001 to 2003, a third world war took place! It was terminated by a massive nuclear bomb. The effect of the explosion and radioactive storm that followed was not restricted to the super powers; its effect was felt all over the world.
The devastation caused resulted in a new life for the world's inhabitants - that of primitive cavemen. In this now desolate landscape, the only creature to survive is the 'Krackat', a mutated turtle-like creature whose only diet is that of human flesh!
Your only hope of survival is to kill the ever-increasing number of Krackats. You perform this by pushing the pieces of rock (which form the maze walls) onto the Krackats. Background radiation is rising thus you must complete your task before the rocks disintegrate and you die of radiation sickness.
On the second and third screen, the bonus rocks have special functions.
A boulder will move unless it is blocked by another rock, in which case the boulder will be crushed instead. Boulders will bounce back towards you if you miss a Krackat.
Crushing the cyan rocks results in bonus points scored. Do not attempt to move a rock which contains a bomb, since this may start another holocaust!
The Krackats develop from eggs, so you may be able to kill them before they hatch!
Z - Left, X - Right, : - Up, ? - Down, RETURN - Push/Crumble
Alternatively, you may use a joystick.
S and O turn the sound on and off respectively. DELETE freezes the game and COPY restarts it.
A bonus caveman is awarded at 6,000 points.
