The game differs from its predecessor by an increase in the size of the play area (including a neighbouring girls' school) and a number of gameplay changes. The girls' school incorporates its own new characters including undistinguished girls with hockey sticks, Hayley (girlfriend of the main character Eric) and Miss Take (the headmistress). Only at break time and lunch times are the girls allowed to mingle with the boys, in the central grassy playground, separated at other times by a high gate. The opening and closing of the gate is controlled by the school caretaker Albert, a new character to the game. It is also possible for Eric to sneak over the gate into the girls' school during lesson times, either using the bicycle (after completing the challenge of finding its lock's combination and then performing a tricky manoeuvre on it), by watering the flower beside the gate and then jumping on it, or by kissing Hayley through the gate. When the girls and boys are allowed to mingle and when Eric gains access to the gShadow of the Unicorn

Don't Buy This is a ZX Spectrum video game compilation released in 1985. As described on the box, it contains five of the poorest games submitted to Firebird. Instead of rejecting the submissions, they decided to mock the original developers by releasing them together and publicly brand it as "unoriginal" and "awful". Firebird even disowned all their copyright to the game and encouraged buyers to pirate it at will.Galactic Gambler

Imagine a French chimney sweep called Smudge....It's not easy, and neither is our hero's task! He has to clean all the chimneys in the village of Le Crelle before he can go home. He has already been hampered on his way to work by drivers on the wrong side of the road, sudden obstacles and bouncing footballs projected into the street by ruffian school kids. Once he has parked his bike in the lay-by, you've got to help him use his Jetpack to mount the roof and lower him into each stack. Only then do you discover that everything is not well. Strange airborne creatures - the "Moonees" - well known local pranksters, looking for fun, try to knock Smudge off the roof again and again. But with all that Galic charm and some help from you he perseveres, and as the say in Paris "If at first you don't succeed, it's time to make a clean sweep". Therefore after each screen you must return to the local laundry and rest so that Smudge can regain his strength to tackle the next type of building, before finally achieving his ambi
