"Join super star Seymour in his Hollywood debut. Make it in the movies. Meet frightening Frankenstein, evil Ding the Merciless, bash the big King Bong, and find Rick Bracy's true love."

I open this longplay with the demo version - Seymour: Take One. In this mini episode, Seymour joins the set and establishes him self as a megastar setting up the full game.

Seymour has got his first big break: he is to star in the latest block busting movie. He turns up to work on the first day to find the studio in pandemonium! The stupid director Dirk Findelmeyer II has left for a holiday in Miami leaving all the scripts locked away in the safe. Seymour thinks there is something decidedly sinister going on when he discovers Tarzan with a speech impediment, a body in the study, and the lifts don't work either!!

The game is quite long almost as devilish as Spellbound dizzy. Or maybe its even more evil in that there are no life or extra energy pickups in the game. I think going back to the annoyance of Treasure Island dizzys pickup and drop system was a backwards step. Thankfully no water to worry about in this game.
