I just saw a documentary on Croatian TV about the pioneers of gaming in Croatia, then in Yugoslavia. This game was created by a group of friends from Croatia, and sold to a Brittish publisher, all via mail, audio cassettes in a package and to the post office! Ofcourse I had to check it out on KZitem!

Wow, you were SO lucky! My Speccy also came in a Dixons box set, bundled with 10 games (like Crazy Golf and Superfile) but they were mostly rubbish. The best two were Oh Mummy and Treasure Island, but honestly, if this had been included it would have been amazing, and would have given me some great childhood memories. As it happens, I've never even seen this game before today.

This game was impossible to finish! I got so close to the end, and bam! I got led into a scene and shot and that's it, have to do EVERYTHING again. I don't believe the game had a SAVE feature. Loved the graphics and the interaction, very well done for the time!!

For its time, this game was amazing. It was almost impossible to play and it really didn't help you at all, with anything. I loved it. If people think Dark Souls is hard, they should try and play this for five minutes.

There are two identical women, one helps you and one gets you killed, and whichever one is in the game is determined randomly. So 50% of the time you play this you're doomed from the very start. A bold design choice.

The Amstrad CPC password "whisky" replaces "puzzle". I think it applies to "shifra" too. The "shifra" trick doesn't seem to work, so I wonder if rescuing the good girl will give you the other password? EDIT: "shifra" is "except" in the Amstrad version.
