So how does it fair, my dear Matty? Well, to be honest IвЂ™ve only played it a couple of times and IвЂ™m a little uncertain as to whether I like it or not. This game is likely to divide people on just those lines: it has some very simple action elements like having to jump gaps in a floor but in the main this is a problem-solving, object-based arcade-adventure.Д®ither blokey has rather short legs or the fashion for wearing your trousers just below the hips has stuck-around until 2031. This game style tends to divide people: some (waves arm in the air) rather like their element of problem solving whilst others find them repetitive and boring.

Gameplay is in the style of an old-fashioned pick-up-the-object-and-use-it-there style that was common in 8-bit titles of the 1980s and has never really come back into fashion beyond a brief resurgence in the underrated Valhalla series on the Amiga in the 1990s. The game begins as a fire breaks out in the building and our hero must escape, thatвЂ™s all the task weвЂ™re given at the beginning. Since then, the skyscraper has been plagued by mysterious happenings, none of which seems to have scared-off our interpid protagonist who lives in one of the skyscraperвЂ™s numerous appartments. Set inside a skyscraper in the (presumably) fictional Midnight City in the near-future (2031) an introductory sequence (thoughtfully made optional from the main menu) details an incident from 1931 when some indestructable bloke in a mac (thatвЂ™s the coat, not the computer) stormed his way into the lobby to cause aggro to some woman on the upper floors.

Yet another new ZX Spectrum release for 2009, this time Rafal MiagzaвЂ™s terrifically вЂ™50s-sounding Skyscraper of Doom!ДЄpparently, this was a project originally started in 2005 and continued and finished in recent months. Ooh, look at the bags under those eyes! Skyscraper of Doom? All-nighter of Exhaustion more like.
