At this seemingly innocent lesson await his numerous. On top of him falling balls. Bottom during a game at Pyramid climb gourmand springs (more reminiscent of light bulbs) and balls with his hands, which are taken as the hunt for a harmless champing. Needed to avoid a collision with ill-wishers and painted the entire field. Once the goal has been achieved, proceed to the next level - with a larger area of the pyramid. Sometimes on the field caught bonuses - shoes-runners, accelerating step champing, coins, glasses and adding machine, or rather, the machine time, which can be used to stop time for a while:). Control in the game by a stylus. Music and sound effects are configured through the menu. Overall - quite nice. For a simple scenario, the schedule is quite suitable. In no case, however, do not think that a simple scenario means simplicity of the game. Far more contrary. Lingering on the pyramid will have to calculate the moves on the fly, so as not to interfere with balls and malignant springs, chasing you. Couple tips - springs smart enough to try, but you can outwit, summing up to the edge of the pyramid and drop down.

Fortunately, on the island, where runs a game, nobody there. Only you and the golf course. Golf uneasy, with the secret switches, the opening track, without which it is sometimes impossible to win, but also a system of elevators that can be used to advance to the second level. Graphics and animations are constructed so that the device safely exposes them render (There is, however, minor errors when displaying the flight of the ball). Without much mishap, you can safely play three stages (I apologize for the lack of masters golf special terminology) available in the demo.

On the field, compiled from a variety of shapes, there is emptiness. You are given some time to think, and then starts to fall from the top strap. Need to rearrange the pieces so that the plank did not pass over the holes. On failure, you will gradually dry up the energy. Once it reaches zero - you lose. Levels in the game - a lot, so that with proper care can play long enough. Creators of the game - the developers of Astraware - drew remarkable figures, all perfectly clear, well thought out. Music, however, is not tantra, but it can be disabled, as well as sounds like a siren heralding the passage of the bar on emptiness. Here are the menus they have got some confusion. Placed in a shell Windows Mobile, the game uses a standard service lines from the menu and input system. However, when it comes to writing his name in the scoreboard, for some reason it gives your keyboard. Then - for very dull - there for two different windows services. One - the graphics, the other - in a standard windows-box-native. A little weird, but does not interfere with focus. It is time to return to the game. "Om mani padme mind ... Om mani padme mind ... "

- Will be. Skewers of you will be!
Like this, quote from the cartoon about Munchausen can explain the strange name of the game (in Russian it sounds like "Jack, or 100 recipes for kebabs).

No, to wish him a pleasant stay - Jack rushes after him, where we had, actually, and we find. So, more than 300 rooms, 15 different enemies, 5 types of weapons against evil spirits 30 types of bonuses. All this - in a game such as Lode Runner. Everything seems fine, and draw all, and sounds ... Hope you get pleasure from it. I probably grew out of Lode Runner-Ou.
