Captain Dynamo PC

Captain Dynamo is a fun platformer created by Codemasters. The main protagonist of the game is the title daredevil, setting off to meet the arch-keeper who stole a large number of diamonds. Your task will, of course, recover them.

Compared to other games of this type, our hero will not move horizontally but vertically. Plates are actually wells whose platforms can climb upwards at huge heights. Although it might seem that the main task is to collect diamonds (at least that's what the story suggests), in reality it's all about getting to the teleport and going to the next board. Gems play a secondary role and, apart from increasing point output, they have practically no meaning. In all stages there are traps, both stationary ones, such as spikes or fields of energy, as well as moving ones, in the form of various disgusting creatures. We can kill the latter by jumping directly on their heads.

The Captain Dynamo visual luminaire is maintained in a cartoon-like, funny atmosphere and does not raise any objections. Animation of characters and enemies is done very efficiently and certainly will appeal to fans of the genre. The sound is also a success, with pleasant music playing in the background all the time. The only drawback of the program is the high level of difficulty, manifesting itself in greedy traps, the existence of which we will often not suspect, and a small number of additional "live".
