Li-Nuggz is a a fast paced platform game similar in feel to the classic arcade game Pang, but that is where similarities end.

On startup you have the main screen with the option to play the game through the levels or to go for the quick start option.

Thankfully you can redefine the keys otherwise this would be virtually impossible to play on the C500AudioVOX with it's hardware limitations.

The object of the game is to shoot objects ranging from bubbles and fruit to rocks fireballs of various sizes out of the sky. The larger items get split in two and you have to shoot them again until they get small enough to disappear.

You are up against a time limit to clear the screen and if you have time, there bonus points around the screen to try and pick up.

A variety of power ups also add to game play from Time freeze to weapon

increase. If you like hard end of game bosses then you are in for fun and I now remember why I hate dragons :lol:

Over all the level of difficulty is challenging (on the C500) but once you have completed a level you do not have to do it again, unless you want to

practise your game play, which I am sure you will need :D

I found the game to be addictive and once you get used to the controls it's hard to put down as you want to be able to complete that one more level.

A well made game with no problems or bugs that I could find.

Well worth every penny.

One thing that I was also impressed with was the text input interface for

entering your high scores.
