This works in the same way as Pac-Man, with you running around mazes and collecting soul shards whilst avoiding monsters rather than ghosts. The camera is much closer in, and some of the monsters have different behaviours, but at its heart…

Whilst none of the trucks seem to handle differently, they’re all visually distinct. Scratch Attack has a full on cat motif and Demo Derby looks like a giant stock car. They look nicely detailed and all have their own unique special move…

If you solve additional, hidden puzzles, you’ll discover other tapes that reveal more about what was going on behind the scenes of the TV show you’re exploring. Reaching an end to the game isn’t too challenging, but getting an actually…

Puzzles were equally frustrating as well, but not due to them being difficult as such. It’s often fairly obvious that combining something acidic with a padlock will allow you to open a door. The annoyance comes from how difficult it is to…
