Chiller

released on Dec 31, 1985

Whilst trying to reach the haunted mansion in which your kidnapped lady is held, your car runs out of fuel. As a result, you must progress on foot to reach her. The areas you must travel through include the forest, cinema, a ghetto and the graveyard. All are filled with ghouls, zombies, ghosts or bats, all ready to drain your energy. To complete each screen you must collect the five blue crosses. Once you reach the mansion and find her, you must escort your girlfriend back through the same territories, switching between characters to collect the blue (him) and red (her) crosses as quickly as you can, still not safe.

Messy visuals and basic, clunky platforming, if you can even call it that.

Frankly incomprehensible platform game with a faint horror twist. Jump around the levels collecting crosses and mushrooms(!), trying to figure out what objects are climbable, and what are solid enough to walk on, it's anyone's guess really. The Spectrum version is missing the main draw of the others, the music, and it quite frankly pales in comparison to the C64, but it's colourful enough, and has good variety in the few levels it offers.

Status: 540 points. Game looping
