This game always fascinated me and I found it was quite original.
Cheating a little bit with savestates, I reached the end.
Actually, it has only 17 rooms in total, the 17th being the 'enddemo', so practically just 16.
I would like to know if people ever beat it without cheating (I got in room 12 or so back then) and if there's interest in a walkthrough or YouTube footage.

Then you should try 666 - The Haunted House, it always seems to top the MRC download charts even though supposedly it's rare: http://www.msx.org/666-the-haunted-house..newspost1069.html ;)

YouTube footage? Sure :) I like your MSX vids.
Especially since there's not as much obvious reverse/savestate dodging going on when compared to (most of) the flood of MSX game vids this year. (note: I'm sure there are plenty people that like those kind of walkthroughs, I just don't)

Thanks! As a matter of fact, none of my vids were made with reverse function or TAS etc. and they never will be. To everyone his own. Smile
I'll see what I can do on this (IMO underrated) game.

i beated it in the 80s, the beggining was very hard, but with training it became easy and i got disappointed with the number of stages. but its the best game in this joe kowalsky series.

Agree with that, though I had hours and hours of fun with Blow Up too.

So, how did you get past room 7? The skeleton is in the way to climb the stairs, and you can't seem to jump on it...

Don't waste the bullet on the 'brain with eyes' (just avoid it by jumping) and use it on the skeleton.

I still have the bullet, but when I touch the skeleton I die. How else do I use it?

Edit: found it, F1 shoots bullets... I didn't use it in any room before this one Tongue

You did the previous rooms without using any bullet? That's pretty hardcore. Smile So that's why I assumed you already knew how to fire, heheh.

Thanks for the Youtube vid Manuel!

The last level looks a bit buggy - or is that the TAS doing some strange things? And what a stale ending oO

It is very annoying to play that last level... the blinking bottom floor sucks Tongue
