Following on from last week’s Definitely Not Frogger/Ski Slalom game Horace Goes Skiing (And Traffic Dodging), today I bring you another from the Horace Trilogy: Hungry Horace. Which definitely isn’t Pac-Man.
Actually, that sarcasm is a little unfair. There are quite a few differences to Pac-Man, not least the fact that there are various mazes. Some have tunnels. You can move onto the next maze without collecting all the dots. There aren’t as many ghosts (or park keepers, or whatever they’re supposed to be in this).
It’s also a lot harder, especially this screen:
Getting to the top right, avoiding the two baddies, is not only hard, it’s almost impossible. And the bell that allows you to “eat” the baddies? You have to get past the baddies to get to it!
Can you beat it? No, you can’t. But would you like to try? No? Sod you then.

Controls: QZIP. Just like Horace Goes Skiing, in fact.
The emulator used is Qaop/JS – a rather spiffy HTML5 Spectrum emulator.
