Atic Atac with Sheep! A classic Spectrum game originally remade for MS-DOS. Chose one of three hero’s in this massive quest.

Instructions

A remake of a classic Spectrum game called Atic-Atac.
We took the principle of the game but changed the graphics and the Map Design to make THE BURPS. You can read a review here.

Its an older game of ours – which is designed for DOS systems. Yea, its that old! Its been tested in Windows 98/ME/XP and found to still work -seems the sound routines I used back in those days dont like the windows environment.

The object of the game is to collect the correct three parts of the treasure key using one of three characters. Each character can access its own secret passage ways.

RAYMOND can access the Clocks
WALTER can access the Bookcases
FLOSSY can access the Casks

You can only carry 3 objects at any one time.

Collect the correct coloured keys to open the doors to further your quest.

The three parts of the key must be placed in your inventory in the correct order. Once completed find the treasure room and unlock the door.

Choose your hero, each with its own weapon and access to their own secret doors to aid you in your quest.

Use the cursor keys or the joystick to move

TAB / Button 1 – Pick object up

Q / Button 2 – Fire Weapon

P – Pause

ESC – Quit game
