Also known as: The Killing Game Show (EU)

Psygnosis Bizarre Creations

Publisher: Psygnosis · Developer: Bizarre Creations

This game is a mixture between platformer and shoot'em up. It looks very similar to the popular computer video game Turrican. Apart from avoiding or shooting enemies moving in different patterns you must make your way from the bottom up to the level exit because after a few seconds toxic liquid will start to rise. At the beginning of each level you may display a map by pressing the Help key. You can jump, run, climb walls and use special weapons or items (keys to open certain gates) to master different sections of these levels. After you lose one life you see a replay and be able to continue at any point by pushing the fire button. You can fast-forward the replay by holding the F10 key. This was a unique and convenient feature because like other Psygnosis titles the game has a high degree of difficulty. The Amiga and Atari ST versions consisted of 8 levels separated into 2 parts each. The Genesis version was published as Fatal Rewind and had 6 levels divided into two parts each.
