A walkthrough of the ZX Spectrum game, Oink! This 1987 game is based on the British comic magazine of the same name. The chief editor, Uncle Pigg, has a problem: He is missing some pages for the next issue and the editorial deadline is near. The player needs to complete three sub-games to finish the missing pages:
Pete's Pimple is based on Breakout: destroy all the blocks by hitting them with the ball. Enemies can be destroyed by shooting a laser cannon.
In Rubbish Man the player controls a super hero of the same name. He flies through obstacle courses and the player needs to steer to avoid said obstacles. He can also shoot the blocks to destroy them.
Tom Thug, another superhero, has to be guided through a top-down maze to the exit. He has to pick up special blocks which either reward advantages like extra lives or keys to proceed further. Enemies can be stunned or destroyed with the gun. A "Strobes can't kill" POKE was used in this section.
