Game description:

Phoenix Lair is a collect'em game.

You play as a phoenix, which lair has been invaded by spiders and other enemies, and your goal is to collect all the eggs in each level and leave the level from where you started.

There is a bonus level after each main level, which plays like Joust...just without the platforms. You have to hit the ostrich riders.


What I think:

Quite interesting concept: Take Joust and make a completely different game out of it.

The problem is....it is quite frustrating. In level 2 everything you touch kills you.
If it wouldn't be for that this game would've gotten a higher rating.
