Press reviews: “If you're a climbing game fanatic then this is the game you should get - it's what Jet Set Willy II should have been. Don't let your best friend borrow it - you will never get it back!” 95% – Computer and Video Games (November 1985) “At last, the true successor to Wanted: Monty Mole, and Peter Harrap's evil sense of games humour is back at work.
