Quite possibly the worst controls on a game I have ever seen. You are properly wasting your time getting out of bed in the morning. If you are thinking about paying homage to any other games please dont

I use to play this game on the ZX Spectrum, which I still have and it still works. Although controls are different for obvious reasons, once you get use to them it's OK. Though prefer the Spectrum version with keyboard rather than touch screen.

The jump button is to close to the android home screen so it keepa switching back to the home screen

Impossible to control comfortably which is a shame as this could have been great fun...

More control choices would help.

T70%
by T####:

This would be great if the controls worked properly. After a while, the character won't go up the ladder anymore.

This is a slick looking and sounding remake, lost a little with on-screen controls that can get in the way on occasion and block your view (on a small screen). There is a tilt control by default, but imo the on-screen buttons without tilt work better with practice. An update is arguably necessary to give a split screen mode where the controls are underneath the game window, but it's still worth a look

Would be 5 stars if controls were improved. Would even be willing to pay if controls were better. Good job on recreating the game tho

Excellent graphics and sound but the but the controls let it down "Up / Down" arrows are too far apart, where the "Left / Right" arrows are fine Good recreation of an old classic just a pity about the controls.

D70%
by D####:

Amazing game when the controls work properly can't get the upwards arrow to work therefore you always get caught better controls would really help

H70%
by H####:

I loved this game when I conquered it in the early nineties on the BBC micro. This version brings back great memories but is still a ways off from being nearly as good. The challenge is the controls. I play on a Note 3 and they are currently spread really far across the screen. I think a nice pad in each corner would make this awesome.

Would have given it 5* but it's lost it's original annoying sound fx and bgm great job on a great platform game though

F70%
by F####:

All the effort is wasted by dire controls. I tried tilt and arrows all useless. Needs a sliding d pad .

S70%
by S####:

I've tried different controls in options but none are any good any chance of having the controls closer together to hard to play at the moment
