This game features use of Patrick Lester's excellent Extended Blitz 2D library, and as such does require a 3D card. I have also had assistance from Ric for graphics, and GeeKay for a thumping soundtrack (thanks guys!) I have designed the game to be 100% faithful to the Spectrum version as far as gameplay and difficulty, but as you can see from the screenshots, the graphics have been updated more than a little! The more observant of you may have also noticed that Fred has become a frog - this was the ex partner's idea - and I went along with it (anything for a quiet life). I did manage to come up with a storyline for it, but you'll have to download it to find out why a frog is in an Egyptian burial chamber!
