"The time 1930's. Down Town Chicago - corrupt and crime riddled. MOUSE MALONE, CHEESY FINGERS and FATS RODENT rule the streets. Murray Mouse Super Cop is UNTOUCHABLE. The Mouse Mafia MUST be stopped."
Another Cartoon Adventure from Codemasters sold as a budget game only utilising 48k. The game is closer to Little Puff than Slightly Magic making it more accessible for a younger audience. The game is simple. Navigate the maze like level taking objects and using them in the right place to reveal more of the maze. A secondary objective is to find all the mice along the way. Collect them all and youve won! There are just three red herring items near the end of the game you don't need.
It's not overly difficult but the smooth movement of the main character with twitch like responses can be a cause of concern when near danger such as torches and deep water which kill you so some care needs to be taken. The controls don't feel quite right when it comes to jumping on platforms and may need more than a few attempts but it's worth noting that it controls far better than the C64 conversion.
Overall, the game is well presented, colourful and moves swiftly along. Some times a game tip will scroll in the background which looks nice and not included in the c64 game. The only real let down is the audio with no music at all and nothing for 128k owners.
