OCS/ECS Game of the Month for March 2023, is Kid Gloves II!

Reviewed in Amiga Format - March 1992

So Kid has hung up his gloves.

After his death-defying adventures, Kid finally made it home to safety, and put away his magic boxing gloves. Storing them in the dark recesses of his attic (along with his baseball cap), he vowed to forget the gloves and their supernatural properties.

But as time passes the magical power of the gloves engulfs Kid once again, and he embarks on a new and more extraordinary adventures, this time accompanied by his girlfriend Frida...

The magic worlds of the gloves are now ruled by Wievallard, an evil wizard hungry for power and pleasure. As soon as he spots Kid's girlfriend, a dastardly plan for kidnap forms in his mind, and she is whisked away by his overpowering sorcery, to be imprisoned in his mountain stronghold.

Now Kid is searching the mysterious magic worlds, hot on the trail of his beloved girlfriend and the wizard Wievallard. Your task is to help Kid in his undertaking - but beware of the evils that abound in this arcane world of magic and mystery!

This one was actually a pretty good platformer and one I think I will keep in my play later list!

Best was 28510 on my A1200 - I know this means I don't qualify (playing on an A1200 for the OCS Gothem) for a submission but thought I would share my score.  Hopefully an OCS or emulation player can post a score tonight!!!

Where was my competition!!?  This was a fun game.  Because no-one qualified, we may revisit this one in the future.
