Exolon is best-known as a Spectrum and C64 game by Raffaele Cecco, but it got a 16-bit port to ST and Amiga that makes a few changes -- most notably to the level design. While it presents players with a near-vertical difficulty curve, repeated play does gradually reveal its charms... and its irritating aspects!
