A simple concept that a lot of people did not like. However, I thought that this was an exceptional game when released, where the enjoyment is gained from the challenging gameplay rather than fancy graphics or tunes. Still looks simple but still plays exceedingly well. The frustration of reaching the top level, hitting the roof and plunging all the way down to the bottom is still palpable. The poem is dumb but well worth revealing. A classic!Other Images (click or select to view larger version)
