Original review - Okay, this is a game I loved on the ZX Spectrum. I have to agree with the previous reviewers. The current control scheme feels alien!

A good attempt...

A remake of a simple, yet quite enjoyable old game on ZX spectrum and C64 (although the C64 never got the sequel, included here). The mechanics are mostly faithful to the originals, with some minor changes (I remember punches knocking the other students down on the spot, instead of pushing them away, for example) that do not make the experience any...
