I am looking for the name of an old BBC model B game.
Here is what I remember about it:
It is 2D block moving game.
It was written mostly in BBC Basic with some assembler parts.
At the start of the game the screen was randomly filled with the
bricks and the several small creatures (small squares with a cat face
or something like this)
These creatures start moving toward you (small man) Each of your turns
is
followed by one turn from each cat face. Your goal is to block all the
creaturres
by locking them (building walls) with the bricks.
You can push bricks in front of you in any direction.
The game ends when all the creatures are blocked and can not
make any movements any more.
It was very addictive game and after many years I would like to play
it again.
Please tell me how it was named.
Thank you in advance.

That sounds really familiar, I've got a feeling it was BBC Micro User
cover-disk game, but for the life of me can't remember what it's
called. Sorry.
Cheers,
Rob

To the world you are somebody, but to somebody you are the world.
I can't remember the name but the creatures were foxes and you had to pen
them all in. They always moved towards you, so that helped.
Was it the Purple People Eaters?
Best wishes,

Thank you VERY MUCH! I appreciate it.
Now playing it again!
