Batty Builder

Man's aim is surely to create rather than to destroy; to see new monuments to his ingenuity and effort arise where once there were emptiness and waste.

Sermon over. But if you want to try your hand at some construction instead of the usual destruction, in a game with a touch of the zany, you could do worse than cast an eye over Batty Builders.

At the top of the screen is a moving row of white and yellow bricks. As these come tumbling down you must position your man to catch them.

When you get underneath you press the fire button to catch them, then release the button to position them on a lower level. More points are scored for walls of one colour, and on the higher levels there are hazards such as TNT to overcome as well as the bricks.

A simple game but enormous fun.
