It's got many drawbacks; graphics are alright but quite blocky for 1991 standards (although animations are nice), the backgrounds/houses all look the same, music is ugly and the same throughout the whole game, and it's too easy, at least 'til the very final stage in South America. Still, it's got atmosphere, the spiders make your skin crawl and the cutscenes are well-drawn; it kept me hooked for a couple of days.

There are 7 towns, and they all look the same! You need to find the spider nest in each town, and spray it twice, to destroy it. You activate bombs by pressing on space, and you should save them for the queens. In the 7th town, you face the green spider, and after you kill it, you face 4 yellow + 1 green one. You get 2 pics at the end.

Very good game, with a great, spooky atmosphere. You will jump when the spiders jump down from the ceiling! Not terribly hard, until you have to face the dreaded queen spider (with yellow markings on legs) or the south american spider (with the green markings). Not a game to play at night, but a fun game to play!

Juck...
I hate spiders, too. I played this with a friend at night on his Amiga. While playing a spider ran across his room. You can guess what happened. We weren'rt able to sleep the whole night and were to scared to go back into the room. (I was only 7 at that time)

Pretty decent game with decent graphics for its time. The gameplay is a bit fun for a while but quickly becomes repiticious. Worth checking out though.

I hate spiders.... This game was repetitive at times and, when I was younger, the falling spiders used to scare the bejesus out of me.
