"The race between Whizz the bunny with hot air balloon against a rat with a zeppelin.
though the game doesn't really show the rat often, the first intro cut scene shows that the rat is cheating by shooting with his shotgun against the hot air balloon of whizz the bunny with the hat.
making him fall onto the ground.
he must find his way through out the land in search for another hot air balloon.
whizz has a mushroom as a health bar, collect flags and gems for points and gets another life if he gets 10000 points.
he has a spinning attack which can kill some of the enemies and transform them into mushrooms which can add in his mushroom health bar.
unfortually to perform such a spinning attack he uses health from the mushroom health bar and the enemy can drop a blue mushroom instead of a red one.
the blue mushrooms are bad for whizz as they do damage when he eats them.
not only that, but some enemies are even immune to his spinning attack!
his spinning attack can destroy walls if he has collected boxes that enable him to destroy certain walls, the more boxes he gets the more walls he can destroy with his spinning attack!
you can instantly lose your lives if you don't pay attention, when an enemy walks into you, it will drain away all your health until you either step aside or die.
the time limit to find the hot air balloon makes anyone worried who is stuck into a part of the level where he/she can't figure out how to advance and forced to take another way and luckily there are many ways to complete the level.
many alternative ways to find the hot air balloon, the levels are puzzles in many ways solvable, many ways have more bonuses then the other or some are just faster.
with some unexpected hidden passages & objects placing you near to the finish.
hidden areas that you will give you many points and extra time and objects that you stumbled upon that need a trough investigation to what it’s purpose is.
a platform puzzle game!
the game is quite generous when it comes to lives.
you have a total of 12 lives if I'm not mistaken which are mostly continues and because you also get lives by gaining 10000 points odds are you be able to beat the game if you have enough time.
unfortually there is no way to save the level you are in so if you quit the game you will have to do it al over again.
there are in total 8 levels which recycles 4 level designs twice.
the graphics are eye candy and well designed except for some minor details but it's forgivable.
the music is amazing for it's time, while other games had little to no music this game has a music theme for every level, so there's little reason to mute dosbox as the sound effects blend into the background music of the game.
The mysterious but slow gameplay (you will need to press ctrl+f12 to make sure the frame skip goes faster) enjoyable graphics, the puzzle that can be solved in many ways which would make replaying a satisfying experience for the curious gamer who wants to know every alternative way to end the level, enjoy!"
