I really hate to brag, but I completed all 16 levels of the excellent
Psygnosis strategy/platform/shoot-em-up THE KILLING GAME SHOW! This
took me quite a while, but the ending anim is really worth it! Cute!
The first 3 levels are really pretty easy, but then...
LEVEL 4: Collect the letters of the word PSYGNOSIS and unscramble them
in a bizarre contraption to get out before the DOLL gets you.
LEVEL 5: Roman architecture
LEVEL 6: Totally skeletons - unlock a door in the wrong order and you'll
be shot down by a machine-gun wielding skeleton.
LEVEL 7: Egyptian runes - and you can't jump on these levels!
LEVEL 8: Futuristic scenery with many lasers - which will fry you if you
insert keys in the wrong order. These 2 sections are tough!
*** SPOILER ***
The ending: "Congratulations, you have completed the Killing Game Show"
"It looks like the price WAS right after all!"
Then the animation: as ominous music plays, the creature you control is
shown full screen (larger than the opening anim).
He turns his head toward you, his eyes glows red,
and then he gives you a sly wink. Very cool!
*** SPOILER ***
If anyone is stuck on a level I'll be glad to help or offer suggestions.
