GTW Review - ‘Cookie’ (BBC Micro) - October 20, 2006

Year/Company: 1984 Ultimate - Play The Game
Format: BBC Micro

Year/Company: 2000 Thalamus Interactive
Format:
Gameboy Colour

Rick Dangerous title screen With the amount of sequels emerging today after many years of the original being in the wilderness, it’s a wonder why no one has touched this classic Core title from the days long before the money spinning Lara Croft came onto the scene.

With its humorous and tricky Indiana Jones style traps and puzzles, the game was an early hit for Core, and even spawned a popular sequel a year later.
