Subject: Re: Difference between versions?

 

Yeah the down the toilet room in the c64 version was called "Now
your in it" (sic) and if you failed to jump over the hidden drop you
ended up in a room called "To Thy Grave" which had "HA HA" engraved
in the brick work. My memory's a bit hazy but either this room was a
loop (i.e no matter where you went you ended up in the same room) or
if you went to the right you ended up coming from the left
in "Dinking Vater?". Also if you avoided the drop in "Now Your In
It" and kept going right you ended up in "Dinken Vater". I'm
probably wrong but it was something like that. Also the room titles
were done in a different style and the music (both title and in
game) was different. The game-over scene was different aswell. It
was Willy walking towards Maria on a wall and then her holding up
her fist (as she does) and willy being punched right off the screen.
Hope this info helps. I've no idea what the Amstrad version was like.
