Review of
The Castles of Doctor Creep
by
Donald R. Ferree, Sr.
Although the title may seem a bit
spooky at first, all ye faint of heart
relax. Although there are mummies and
Frankenstein monsters, there are no
spiders, snakes or vampires. As a
matter of fact, it is about as scary
as sitting in your own home playing
a video game on your computer.
However, that is where the similiarity
ends.
The Castles of Doctor Creep
(Castles from here on in) is a cross
between a brain game (you really have
to think), an arcade game (sometimes
you have to be a good stick to get
through), and a race. Castles
starts up in a tutorial mode that
almost eliminates any need for any
documentation. Except for use of the
RUN/STOP and RESTORE keys, all you
need to know to play is contained in
the tutorial. After you have mastered
the tutorial, then you can try one of
the castles. There are 13, ranging
from simple to almost impossible. They
give you the opportunity to learn the
castles with an unlimited lives option
(although you cannot record a score
in this mode). Once you learn the
castle, see who can get the best
time. I highly recommend this game to
any aspiring geniuses who think they
are up to the challenge. Remember, it
is you against the castle and may the
best man win.
