ZX Spectrum Longplay [114] Where Time Stood Still


Played by: Mad-Matt The plane is descending rapidly, Jarret struggling with the controls, searches anxiously for a possible landing site. Breaking through the clouds, the ground is suddenly upon him, and with one last heave on the joystick he prepares for impact. Out of the wreckage tumble Jarret, the guide and pilot, Clive, a fat and wealthy man, Gloria, his delicate daughter, and Dirk, her newly betrothed. They have found themselves on a strange plateau, nestled between the peaks of the greater Himalaya. The only way out of their predicament is via a high mountain pass somewhere on the other side. As our friends will soon be aware, everything is not quite as it seems. Protected by the mountains from both climatic and other outside influences, this land has remained undisturbed for millennia. When your party is attacked by dinosaurs and harassed by cannibals it becomes apparent that no western man has been here and lived to tell of it. -------------------------------------- This a much longer longplay than most as I have set out to get a 100% success rating (not that it rewards you for it...). This means going off the most efficient path and getting into fights with the natives and killer animals in order to show all collectables. Also shown is Gloria getting kidnapped and using the Sacred Jewel to pay for her release. If the jewel is not collected first, then she is sacrificed and dropped down the cliff. I hang around a bit at the end to kill armadillo in order to get at least 76% score before entering the final exit with the 4 characters alive. Quite a few annoying aspects in the game include having the other people get in your way, constantly re-spawning killer animals especially if two spawn right under your feet, Blowing the rocks on the cliff was annoying as the armadillo would pounce while setting the explosive so it took more than a few tries to get that section right. - Disclaimer: Most videos by World of Longplays use SaveStates!
