    This has got to be the most faithful video game adaptation ever made! The setting is bang on, with Boney sitting in his little alcove by the trap door and him upstairs barking orders. The way that the worms and monsters spill out of the trap door and Berk helplessly chases them about is spot on too. The only inaccuracy is that he doesn't leave the bloody trap door open and wander off!

    This game caught my attention when I was a kid but never able to get much progress other than the can of worms. I'd just wander doing silly things with the trap door. Thank you for showing the full walkthrough, nice memories!

    As a kid I played this game a lot. Never got past even the half point. No internet, no walkthroughs back then...

    Such impressive graphics! Looking at this game, you'd never know the Spectrum had colour clash! :)

    My sister's and I used to wait several minutes for this to load, only to walk back and forth between the first few screens repeatedly because we couldn't figure out what to do...

    Very clever, the way this game's graphics were so carefully designed to avoid the Spectrum's notorious "attribute clash" problem. Pretty sure that's the technical term for it. We used to call it "colour sludging" round my way back in the day, because it looked as if the colours were oozing off the sprites and getting onto the scenery :)

    You can use the yellow jug to store slimes. That way you dont have to go up and down 4 times. That gives you time to plant eyeball crushes during first mission. But you won anyway, so good job :-)

    Great seeing this game in action again. I used to play this to death when it came out. The genius of Don Priestly. Excellent use of colour and a nice nod to the theme tune of Trapdoor also. Thanks for the upload.

    Extremely impressive use of the Speccy's garish palette and masking of its inherent colour clash.

    The one time I got as far as getting the safe, I raised the lift too high and crushed it. Nice to finally see the complete ending, 32 years later.

    I can't even begin to describe how long it took me to get my little, 6 year old head around this game and how to play it. I think after a good year of trying over and over I finally got somewhere but man...this was one tricky game and a complete mystery at times!!!

  • @Emzykeetz

    I still haven’t completed this game 😂♥️ thanks for the video showing that happens. The ghost did my head in as a kid 😂

    Great game. Finished it the other day (Jan 2016). I still got it. :D

    I never realised that you could put all three fully-grown eyeballs into that basket; I always assumed that they would be far too big so I never even thought about attempting it.

    The only task I couldn't do was the crushed eyeballs. Just couldn't get the machine thing in the right place. Amazing game though. I loved it, and still do.

    I always use the yellow container to collect the slimies in - it saves 3 repeat trips to the swamp.

    I used to like waiting for things to crawl on top of the trap door and then opening it so they'd go flying straight up in the air.

    Wow memory lane, I loved this game but it was so difficult back then, no internet to turn to etc..
