Developed by Touch of Magic and published by Virgin Games in 1991

On the positive side, the graphics are vibrant and nicely animated, and the quintessential British town setting is a nice touch.

Unfortunately, quality control wasn't high on the developer's list of priorities. It's possible to glitch inside of walls on the sewer and office block levels, and you lose the ability to control Ronny if you jump outside the boundaries of the screen.

There are numerous spelling mistakes in the various dialogue boxes throughout the game, with my personal favourite being Inspector Cuff renamed to Inspector Buff.

There's at least one occasion where there are more jewel boxes in a level than the counter suggests. Collecting the box actually increments the box counter from 0 to 1, so I decided to avoid picking it up in case it broke something.

This isn't a terrible game, but, if I'm honest, I think the C64 version of Rolling Ronny is the better game.
