A 2D scrolling platform game in the Assassin ilk. USP was that you could transorm into either 10 or 12 different creatures in order to explore thitherto unreachable areas/defeat foes. best animals were spiders, who could climb up walls, and an eagle who go virtually anywhere and was quite tough to boot.
The game suffered from many a glitch, including sprites getting stuck etc. I played it on an A500 and got the impression it was designed for the A1200; either that or it was rushed out before bugtesting.
It was also pretty tough. I remember looking forward to it, but didn’t play it for more than a couple of weeks. Despite this, i remember it scored well in teh mags of the era.
