There haven't been many of these multi-screen exploration games yet on the Beeb, so this one's bound to do well. Read Review
Sabre Wulf is very good, but it takes that little bit longer to master due to the non-standard control keys. Read Review
Down and down I plunged, through Rocky Glades, Steep Ravines and Shady Hollows... No grip, no footholds, slipping, tumbling, spinning, darker and darker, deeper and deeper.
Glinting eyes, clutching hands, clasping paws, clawing my all, as I swiftly twist and tumble onwards.
Darker and darker, deeper and deeper. It is the end that I fear, of this untrodden voyage... to where I do not know... Aarrrgggg... Thud!
Fall and end meet on soft mossy soil... with weapons drawn and senses full I move quickly and quietly around the mounded clearing... All safe except a message... An ancient warning etched deep into the lifeless stonen.
Thy path is long so tread with care
Beware the Wulf and pass his lair
Danger threatens all around
so take ye from this hidden mound
To free thee from this sunken gate
by way of cave or meet they fate
An Amulet to seek thy will
'twas split by quad and hidden still
Pass the keeper wrought with hate
to gain an entrance to the gate
The pieces lost must thee amass
for if no charm then none shall pass
I edge through the shady mounded clearing and on through the dense thickets of hot house rainforest undergrowth, of sorts I cannot tell, and wait... and listen... Distant rumblings of heavy feet crashing, large animals leap from the damp green stubble, to fight and kill.
I stay hidden... The rumblings grow louder and louder, as a huge Goliath animal crashes past, horns swiping and tail lashing. Still I hide as its thunderous swiping and tail lashing, still I hide as its thunderous noise dies away.
All was clear as I leapt over the clumps and onto the well-trodden pathway, its deep ruts and prints reveal the multitude of life forms inhabiting this hollow. Danger threatens so I should move quickly... But where???
Wide eyed, I stare, as the dense surroundings reveal their hidden secrets... Strange food orchids suddenly bloom, their staining toxins, strong on the air, then, in an instant, are gone. Hunters, killers, vampire bats and huge beasts spring forth from the very ground, swimming, slithering, diving and crawling... I must hide... Stay safe... With weapon strong and cunning nature, I will survive...
