18. A Manic Minor's 80s Christmas Shopping Trip

Author: Stephen Doobrie

Year: 2016

Language: English

 

A Manic Minor's 80s Christmas Shopping Trip was an entry in the comp.sys.sinclair Crap Games Competition 2016. The game does not present any real difficulty, and the fact that in a number of levels the player can go from the left of the screen and wrap around to the right of the screen provides shortcuts that make it even easier.

 

Number of rooms: 20

Highest documented score:

- upon reaching the swordfish sign: 40,081 points.

- upon first re-entry into the first cavern: 41,665 points.
