Reviews

“With its iris-ing windows and great graphics the game is as stylish and idiosyncratic as you'd expect from the people who gave you Frankie, and it's pretty difficult. But who could resist when the prize for success is a webbed hand in marriage - and the price of failure is that you get to carry her home in two separate bags!”
80% – Your Sinclair (March 1986)

About This Game

Originally released in 1985, this odd shooter for the ZX Spectrum saw players take on the role of a heroic Wartoad trying to save the Queen of the Cosmic Wartoads, who has been transformed by the Rygellian Slime Beasts into the most hideous thing imaginable: a human being! Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version.

Find and collect the eight elements of the vital Cosmic Toolkit, along with the keys for the Road to Nowhere and Somewhere. Can you cross the Rygellian Time-Void, reach the Slime King's lair, and save the Queen before she is sliced in two?
