Lady Cruncher (PC)

Lady Cruncher (PC)

Remember this? Well, I bought it today, as it was only a pound. It took a bit of convincing to run on my MacBook (under Parallels) as it kept flicking screen mode, but eventually I made it work.

And OH MY, was it so not worth bothering.

Here’s a brief review:

Lady Cruncher is a Pac-Mania clone, only from the same camera angle as the Saturn game Bug! and stars a toilet/robot hybrid in drag. On each level you collect flowers, bananas or coconuts (instead of dots) and giant bananas or apples (instead of power-pills) which let you grow huge and eat the marauding evil robots. Sometimes you need to collect keys to open pathways.

The graphics are crap, the camera angle makes depth perception difficult (artificially making certain levels harder), and the sound effects are rubbish.

Overall, not worth a pound.

I got to “Girl Power Level 9” before I died and gave up.
