Lupo Alberto: The Videogame

Certainly has a console vibe to the graphics and gameplay. It feels a little bland overall and offers little more than would have been offered by similar platform cum mapping games released earlier. The sprites also lack definition and little new is introduced to the basic premise of collecting fruit. That said, the Zzap! Review was a touch harsh but perhaps reflected that it was a full price game that offered no more than budget platformers of the time.

A good platform game, with nice enough cartoonish graphics and cute music, albeit repetitive; there's also an option for two players. There are several levels, each with its own graphics/mood and nice backgrounds, showing there was quite some effort behind it; it retains a good atmosphere, especially during the nighttime levels. Unfortunately the game loads pretty often during the gameplay, breaking up the action a bit too much, and there are quite a lot of annoying "trial and error" jumps into the void below, often ending on spikes unless you remember where to land exactly.

I loved this game back in the day! And I have to say I still like it now.
It's especially fun to play with a friend together, one plays with Alberto and the other with Marta la gallina!

I agree it's a standard platform and doesn't really invent anything nor excel in the graphics department, but the atmosphere is fun and friendly, the music is nice, the game is smooth and the playability is good.
I'd buy it again

A very essential platform game with interesting graphics, pretty similar to the comic strip, good playability, colourful, decent backgrounds. Maybe loses something in variety, is a bit repetitive but really addictive game.

Heh, I remember the catalog from my C64 game distributor... It said this game was very much like the Dizzy games. I guess that's the only reason why I ordered it. Seems I was lucky he didn't have any in stack at the time and I never bought it.

I loved this game since the first time I played it on my old c64... And now, more than before... Above all it was one of the few italian game... But where is Chuck Rock from Genias??? That was very cute...

Ohh... How could I forget Lupo Alberto?
I played and completed it on my Amiga, and shame on me, at time I dislike the Commodore 64.
Well, now wanna pay for my past arrogance trying soon to complete the game on Commodore 64.

Lot of FuN!! =)))))))

Great graphics and playability, good music and nice sound effects.
Every time you complete the level you are rewarded with the last vignette of one of the comic strips present in the manual.
Very funny.
