Review:

At a time when most games were simple arcade games written in BASIC this release was amazing. Not only was it fast and very playable, it also featured several different mazes and the ability to exit one without completing it, thus enhancing the strategic elements.

In his time, Horace was as big a character as Sonic or Super Mario. A classic game that, unlike 99% of software of that time, is still playable today.
