How it feels

A cheerful, retro-styled platformer where you collect eggs across busy levels with ladders and enemies, occasionally disrupted by a persistent rival.

What players say

Players nostalgic for the 1980s original have mixed feelings. Many praise the updated graphics and faithful level layouts, but some say the controls feel looser, mid-air steering makes it easier, and the scrolling screen removes the original's planning challenge.
