1st October 1985
Miner Willy first appeared in Manic Miner, a platform game, and has graduated to a multi-screen game in which he has the familiar task of collecting objects from a host of flick-screen rooms.
The graphics are the same as in other machine versions, while the sound is comprised of an annoying jumping noise and a good little tune. Unlike other machines we don't have the annoyance of two versions of what is a classic game - just one great game!
Good News
1. Very large playing area.
2. Plenty of objects to collect.
3. Some well designed, fiendish screens.
4. Compulsive exploration gameplay.
Bad News
1. Horrible jumping noise.
2. The graphics haven't been improved from other machine versions.
