An excellent arcade style game with plenty to keep you on your toes (or rather your joysticks) and an endearing story line for anyone with a garden.

The game is set in the garden of poor Pedro who is fighting a losing battle, I'm afraid. He tends two flower beds but, being rather poor, he can't afford enough bricks to keep holes in the fences blocked. This means that all the animals who pass by try to take a nibble of Pedro's prize blooms. You can help him to block the gaps with the one brick he has left or with compost but this is only a temporary measure as the animals just eat it away.

During the first screen it is ants who invade, then rats followed by rabbits who jump over the walls anyway. The game is responsive on both keys and joysticks, although we preferred the stick, and has an attractive screen. Sound is also of a very high standard. I'm not going to tell you what to do with the tramp or what he does to you! Try it for yourself.
