Nostalgia Spectrum: Road Runner

Road Runner is a port of the arcade machine of the same name. In the game you control the road runner as he runs from right to left and has to pick up bird seed along the way to keep his seed meter up, if the seed meter runs out you lose a life. As games go this is one of the most infuriating games I have played in a while as you have to be perfectly placed to the right of the seed to eat it anywhere else he doesn't interact with it at all. You cannot go back and get passed seeds and the meter runs out very fast. On top of all this the game has a serious color clash problem making some parts of the game impossible to see what's going on. I can only recommend this to olympic Road Runner gamers who notched up high scored on the Spectrum version or people who are masochists 😉
