I just loaded up this game and played for a bit. It runs fine on Windows XP in 95/98 compatibility mode. For those of you who liked Stupid Invaders, it reminds me a little of that game. Very bright and colorful, easy point and click interface, silly, and perhaps a section or two that some will find either funny or tasteless. I'm having fun with it so far. smile

Oh, and I picked it up on German eBay. The same guy I bought it from a couple years ago is still selling it (I just checked). The outside of the jewel case is in German (as is the installation), but the game is in English.

It's from the same company that published Celtica, and there's certainly no similarity whatsoever. laugh

Here is a review:

You are welcome, Butcher and Darleen!

It's a fun game so far. I just hit my first (very short) arcade sequence, but it was easy. Much easier for me than the car chase at the end of Nancy Drew Secret of the Old Clock (just as a comparison). I believe these sequences that the game has are very brief. smile wave

Here are some pics (box art & screenshots) from "Gnap- Der Schurke aus den All" a.k.a. "UFOs"... & another review. It does look like a fun game.

I reviewed this at Quandary if you want to check out another opinion. I thought it was a bit of irreverant fun. The arcade sequences are quite short although tongue fighting might hold you up a little. Make sure you use the platypus action just for laughs.



Quantity has a quality all of its own

I have to say that it's taking me considerably longer than two hours to finish, though. whistle wink

I played this game many years ago. It is a cute game and a lot of fun. I've held on to it though I doubt I'll ever replay it.
