Another TRS-80 Waste of Time
Look: 8/10 I loved the intro graphics, and I can't deny I enjoyed the frog and fly sprites (and the log sprite). Impressive for a TRS-80 game, which isn't saying that much I suppose. I feel so biased against the TRS-80 ha.
Play: 5/10 This was an odd one. And it got old real quick. So clunky, frankly not fun …

Play: 5/10 This was an odd one. And it got old real quick. So clunky, frankly not fun after catching the first 2 or 3 flies, not rewarding enough. But those graphics tho...
Feel: 6/10 I love that it's an attempt at an interactive action-esque game for the TRS-80, but the TRS-80 is just too slow and clunky waiting for the log to move over and for responses etc. It rendered it not fun. I boosted this a bit for their attempt to have a microcomputer action game with such elaborate and complex graphics, but other than that...
Attachment: 5/10 You'd have to pay me a wage to play this drudging gameplay. I would look at the title screen and the "action" screen, though!
