Impossibly hard to understand what you were supposed to do. I don't think I ever got further than the 'candy floss' holder. I think the shop must have left out the insert that told you what to do!

Yes, it serves also as copy protection. I'd bought the game for the Amiga - the novel was completely in German language. But the password request was in English...
So I wasn't able to play the game...
Good work, Rainbird... :party:

Didn't this one come with a novella or something?

I bought this game and was somewhat dissapointed. Like others have mentioned, the game could be longer and gameplay could be better.

It have could be an classic but the control and collisionscheck are to unprecise. Funny idea and weird ideas (so the name) but it's too short and bad to control.

The TV show it was featured on was Motormouth - on Saturday mornings. I was the guy who converted the ST graphics to C64 for Daisysoft / Rainbird. Happy days!

Absolute brilliant game. Wonderful graphics, effectful sound and here you can take part of a brand new game-idea.

The atmosphere and the scenario are great (somehow I'm tempted to compare it to Silent Hill), but the riddles are too easy (you'll finish it in a couple of days) and the story is really too short. A game that could be a measterpiece, a wasted chance.
