Rick Dangerous - A very difficult platforming classic gets a SAM Coupe Conversion

I spent so many hours playing them that it was just so much fun collecting items, talking to the Yolkfolk Villagers, solving puzzles and trying not to die. About the only disappointment I had this year was with The Oliver Twins and Yolkfolk (Fan based Dizzy games) who I have supported for all these years, who didn't even give us a mention for the first newly announced Wonderland Dizzy article ( yes I nearly gave up on Dizzy, I felt so strongly! ).
