xRick (Jump'n'Run) by Anders Granlund  One if my heroes from the good old amiga days is Rick Dangerous, an adventurer who makes Indiana Jones looking like your little sister on her prom night, including the dress! Here we have the GP32 version of the portable Rick Dangerous remake xRick. The game objective is... to complete all levels! You will encounter big rocks, spikes, thorns, enemies, spears, flames... everything you need for a rocksolid jump'n'run adventure. During your mission you can jump, use explosives (YEAH!) and your gun, or stab the enemy with some weird "stick". The GP32 port kicks ass. Period. You always have the impression, that Rick Dangerous was made for the sole reason of being played on the GP32. It's just working perfectly. The graphics are really good (no wonder, they're once made for a commercial game), the game is missing the original amiga music though, but i couldn't give a bad sound rating, because nobody screams more beautiful than Rick Dangerous! But keep in mind, xRick is a rather hard game and requires quite a bit of practise, because there are some unfair traps and other evil things. All in all, one of the best looking (and playing) GP32 game ports ever. NOTE: I was informed that there indeed IS a version with music - I had to add 2 points to the sound rating. Thanks Drumaster.
