This real-time platform puzzler is Contraption Zack meets Sink or Swim and it's published by Lucasfilm games. Surely this is a winning combination, right? Amazingly, James discovers that this is a terrible title with a steep initial learning curve. Frustrating platforming, awkward numpad controls and a paltry time limit make this DOS port a nightmare to attempt. Rightly forgotten about.
