Have you got what it takes to build your very own monster?

THE SETTING: Professor F.N. Stein's laboratory in his Castle in the Black Forest.

THE TIME: 1884

THE GAME: 50 Screens requiring timing, logic and planning to complete.

THE OPPOSITION: Too many to list here, but featuring: snails, bats, ice (it makes you slip!), firemen's poles, man-eating pumpkins, spiders, slime (it slows you down), caterpillars, tanks, spring, light bulbs (they electrocute you), mice, lobsters, snakes, bumble bees, jack-in-the-box, etc.

THE OBJECT: As you know, all the best monsters are hand built. Prof. Stein's life-long ambition has always been to build his own monster - but first he needs all the bits!

You guide him around the dungeon picking up the bones - make sure you get the right order - then activate him by throwing the switch - the longer you take to complete each screen the higher will be the charge you give him - and the angrier he will become - so watch out!
