Danger Mouse In Black Forest Chateau

Hot on the heels of Danger Mouse, the arcade game - comes Danger Mouse, the adventure game! Everyone's favourite super-rodent is off on his first computer adventure in Danger Mouse In Black Forest Chateau.

This is an adventure for the younger gamester with a witty line in captions and some terrific graphics. Instead of the usual "what shall I do?" demand each time you reach a new location or problem, this game gives you a list of options to choose from. It makes problem-solving a matter of trial and error - but the game is none the worst for this, especially if you've never played an adventure before.

The scenario is this. Danger Mouse and his sidekick Penfold are on a mission to destroy a mysterious Pi-beam - no connection with the PiMan, I can assure you!

Danger Mouse In The Black Forest Chateau

This Pi-beam is upsetting world leaders everywhere and Colonel K has sent the dynamic duo off to the Black Forest to discover the beam and put it out of action. Simple, eh?

The game comes in two parts - you have to solve the first in order to start the second part.

Danger Mouse In Black Forest Chateau may not appeal to the hardened adventurer - but if you are looking for some light relief and what to introduce your friends to this form of computer gaming, or if you've never played an adventure before, then pick up this game. It's simply great fun to play.

Danger Mouse In Black Forest Chateau comes from Creative Sparks and is available now.
