In this game you are taking control over a team that has to clean up a park for dog poo. You can switch between four different characters which all have different abilities; one can move crates, one can pop things, one can eat flowers, and one can clean up the poo.
Especially on the later stages things has to be done in a certain way to make a route to collect all the poo, and different enemies are making things tough for you. There are the normal enemies that are moving around the screen all the time, and then there are enemies that only chase you when you control a certain character. Those enemies are moving a lot faster, and then you both have those special enemies and the normal ones chasing you.
It is kind of a puzzle game, and a very good one, you have to figure out what to do first, and which character to use to do it, and the enemies chasing you is putting some good action elements into the game.
The game features 21 levels so there is a lot to do, the graphics is very colorful and good, the controls of the characters are good, the gameplay is good and challenging, and the music is also good, so what’s not to like…
The game looks and plays as you’d expect a Spectrum game to be in 2018; in full color without color clash, with fast and addictive gameplay, and a good AY soundtrack supported with beeper sound fx. Unfortunately not all new games are made like this, but you should definitely check this one out.
