Das KNAX Computerspiel

## Description

A German advergame published by the Sparkasse a credit institute using
characters from the KNAX comics. These are some kind of mascots and the
magazines are given for free as they are used to rise awareness of the
Sparkasse especially by their future customers. The comics usually deal with
the struggle between the residents of the village Knax (the good ones) and
their opponents located in castle Fetzenstein (the bad ones) who are usually
trying to steal the villagers money. In this game the player can select
between Didi and Dodo which are basically the main protagonists of the comics.
The goal is to collect all the coins on a 6×6 squares playfield. To make it
more difficult the player is chased by one of five possible members from
castle Fetzenstein. It is possibly to drop up to five traps per level which
slow the opponent down while the traps left at the end of a level award the
player bonus points. The remaining time of the time limit does the same. In
later levels there are special squares which can only be crossed for a few
times or slow the player down for example. Although the opponent is faster
then the protagonist only he can leave the playfield to appaer on the opposite
side much like in Pac-Man. The game features a Highscore list.
