It's good but it need more *free* levels and Like on the ol' 'miga an' 'tari Versions (AMIGA and ATARI), it need's to have a two player mode! I cannot beleive he didn't do that because a palm pilot is PERFECT for two player because of the Infrared port on the front. Somebody please email him to make two player via Infrared/Bluetooth/WiFi/Cellphone. Other then those two things the game is EXELENT just like the ol' AMiga version. Oh yes, it should also include more music, and level code support.

The game is good, but needs to give unregistered users access to all levels in the original levels and a custom level maker for registered users downloaders, please note: this is a demo!

Briliant game! The only unfortunate side is that the map packs are bloody expensive... maybe release more levels for free (perhaps those that appeared in the original game)?:)

What can I say? I'm addicted!! For some reason, I find it incredibly amusing to save these furry little creatures meaningless lifes, only for them to continue being idiots. I love it! o.O.

Well... it is excellent... but would need more levels! As fun to play as it was on super nintendo like 8-9 years ago!!

Wow. I have a tungsten and this is one of the few games that works well on it. I'll probably end up buying other level packs. Brilliant. Sure beats doing excel spreadsheets on the commuter train!

This is a classic game I played in the past 5 years, one of my favorites, and in most ways a fun puzzle game to keep those silly guys alive, from the traps. The #1 in the past, the #1 now!!

This is the most full featured, rich game palm has to offer. It has manyt options and runs smooth. It is my favorite palm game ever!!!

Excellent game for the palm, hi-res support is awesome on the sony SJ handheld. version 3.3 runs like a charm on my m515. the game runs (but isn't too much fun to play) on my Palm V as well.

For this guy: [Aug 20, 2002] by where's the no sound option What if I don't want the f'ing sound? If there's no option from within the game (any game) itself, learn how to change your device's "f'ing" preferences. Simple, really. RTF'ingM.

For the guy who asked how to turn off the sound, I have a palm zire and the option is under the main menu-> Prefs -> General -> Game sound -> off .. this is under palm OS 4.1 , if this doesnt work , let me know ..
***** [Aug 21, 2002] by Chip
To mute sounds: Menu - Game/Configuration. "Mute sounds" (also unclick "Enable tunes").

What if I don't want the f'ing sound?
