INTRODUCTION:
Miner Willy, intrepid explorer and nouveau-riche socialite, has been reaping the benefits of his fortunate discovery in surbiton. He has a yacht, a cliff-top mansion, an Italian housekeeper and a French cook, and hundreds of new found friends who REALLY know how to enjoy themselves a a party.
His housekeeper Maria, however, takes a very dim view of all his revellry, and finally after a particularly boisterous thrash she puts her foot down. When the last of the louts disappears down the drive in his Aston Martin, all Willy can think about is crashing out in his four-poster. But Maria won't let him into his room until ALL the discarded glasses and bottles have been cleared away.
Can you help Willy out of his dilemma? He hasn't explored his mansion properly yet(it IS a large place and he HAS been VERY busy) and there are some very strange things going on in the further recesses of the house (I wonder what the last owner WAS doing in his laboratory the night he disappeared).
REVIEW:
Miner Willy strikes back in this 2019 game, and if you liked the original Jet Set Willy you should give this game a go. It plays exactly the same as the original and has the same type of graphics and the beeper soundtrack is also the same.
This also means that this game offers absolutely nothing new, except that it only has 12 screens, so if you gave up on the original game because you felt like wandering around forever in endless rooms, this game might be a lot easier to find the way through.
But …because of less rooms some of them has been made extremely tough, so some very precise and accurate timing is needed and it is not an easy task to collect the 25 items needed to get allowed to get into bed.
Not a bad game but just another one of the countless numbers of clones of this game.
The game was made by Andy Ford in 2019.
