The Muncher is a video game for the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum that was released in 1988.[1] It was produced by Beam Software and released by Gremlin Graphics. The game involves the monster from Chewits attacking modern day Japan.[2]
Gameplay
The objective is to cause as much destruction as possible in a 2D setting town. Points are awarded for various buildings destroyed. The monster has fire breath and can destroy buildings in this way.
Reception
The game received generally favorable reviews, with Mark Caswell of Crash magazine calling it "g-r-r-rreat stomping, frazzling, crushing fun!"[3] Duncan MacDonald of Your Sinclair called it "A large sprite, prehistoric mega-romp and smash-em up with the emphasis on total destruction," but warned the reader, claiming the game had a "syrupy control response."[4]
Legacy
The game was issued on the Commodore Format magazine as a full version game in December 1992.[5]
