A short presentation of Roger Ferguson's Hoser, published by Blue Giant Software for the IBM PC in 1982.
An adaptation of Snake where you play as a garden hose and have to pick up all the faucets before the timer runs out. In earlier levels, you only get one at a time, but this later increases. If you take too long, new appears and your hose grows longer. Beat the clock three times to proceed to the next yard, with an extra life (spare hose.)
Two different level sets are included. Amateur plays like classic Snake. Professional levels feature a pseudo-isometric perspective, where the vertical axis becomes diagonal, making things much trickier.
