This is a game that I'll readily admit that I never played back in the day, although I was aware of it on other formats under the guise of Montezuma's Revenge.
The Spectrum port is competent enough. It's a bit smaller, and lacking in the variety and humour of Matthew Smith's games, but it was around early enough on other formats to have perhaps been an influence on Jet Set Willy. Certainly it bridges the gap between the purely sequential platformers and those that allow you to explore at will.
On the whole, not a bad game and I'm a bit surprised that it slipped out almost completely unnoticed at the time; none of the magazines appear to have reviewed it.
