While i loved the music band bit on the front of the speccy version, i have to go with the PC version.
I only ever played the Spectrum and C64 versions. The Spectrum was the best by far. I wish I'd got the Amiga version when I had the chance.
I only played the Amiga version so i guess that one
I'm with the Speccy here, it's the first version i saw so im going for that {yolkfolk}:dizzy:
The correct answer is Amstrad.
The Spectrum version was a great game, but was a little too like Penguins I thought... Still fun, but still penguins.
The Commodore version has great music and is a completely different game, where s dizzy you make your way from room to room through a four storey castle, each room is a side scrolling 3 screen sized maze where strange little purples fluffles abound... You touch them, they follow you to the exit and you score. Neat weapons are available between levels, like the mallet and grenades (!) to mash your foes with that will try to take the fluffles away, and a cool little mini-game every four stages or so comes along where you have to catch falling bits of fruit and the occasional yolkfolk member in a net above a shark infested moat as they are tossed from a tower. Very fun, totally different from the Spectrum version and had nice music.

Spectrum and Amstrad are very similar but Spectrum had better graphics and it's the awesome music throughout the game that make it a winner. The pc or dos version is really good but the music is pretty rubbish.
In my opinion, the music on the Amstrad and Spectrum versions can't be beaten.
I've played three versions of this - the Spectrum, C64 and Amiga. The Spectrum was the best by far and I remember being addicted to it for ages even long after I'd managed to complete it. The C64 version seems to be a completely different game which I found kind of slow. The Amiga version had sprites which were far too big for this kind of maze game and as a result there isn't a lot of area to move around in. And in one screen you start off surrounded by jellyfish (which I originally thought were supposed to be killer bags of chips! :yes: )
I wonder if it would be possible to remake the C64 version... I'd love to, but seems like a lot of work :o_o:
