Micro Fun's The Heist
Ah, The Heist from Micro Fun! Here we have an ok platform game with the goal of collecting valuable art from a museum. As the thief, you'll need to avoid a wide variety of security systems found in the museum and pick up all the paintings before time runs out. Walls, elevators, gaps in the floor, and more make this museum somewhat of a maze. You'll need to explore carefully to reach some paintings without becoming trapped. The concept works well and gameplay is pretty decent; there's one main source of frustration, though, and that is timing jumps over what look like flower pots with something popping out of them. You really need to be exact to get past them, and they're all over the place. It's too bad, as it makes annoying what is otherwise a fun game. This one is worth checking out, but I really, really wish those things on the floor were even just a little bit easier to jump over without dying as that simple change could have made this game much better than it is!
