Fun And Cute Platform N Ladders Game

Play: 7/10 It's always nice to be able to play an Atari game without a manual. You basically just trigger the little ladder/laser-ladders is how I interpret those graphics ha, and try to make it up to the top safely. Welp, sure enough, as per usual with these Atari games' attempts at "innovation," I was wrong: it isn't just a climb to the top: manual link. You can actually kill the guards (well turn em into golden statues), and you're trying to fill up the treasury. Weird that the manual is proud to say no difficulty toggle, like it's a great feature to a game. Oh, one other thing--it's fun to dodge enemies by climbing up the rope, pretty well-done sprites and collision masks for that.

Feel: 7/10 Fun look to it, cute animations, simple and enjoyable.

Attachment: 6/10 Despite all the positives above, it was largely skippable in that it was another platform n ladders game, not one of my favorite genres. This is one of the better, and certainly more unique, ones. So if you are into that genre, definitely check it out. But there are just so many from this era
