I have never heard of this game either but it looks pretty good. Mind you if it was really any good, I suppose we would have heard of it by now ;-)

 Dang dude! Never heard of this game.........don't know how that is possible as I love Rainbow Arts.

Have you played Apprentice?  excellent SuperMarioWorld type game (the gfx are not as impressive)  but this game even though its on one floppy has incredible amounts of levels.

Remeber Rainbow Arts published the Turrican Series also.

WHere can I get that game?


EDIT:
Check out this link I found with a bunch of screenshots of the Game.  WHy oh Why Didnt they advertise this?  Boy companies deserve to fail miserably for the lack of advertising properly.............sheesh.

From the description of the game:

Quote

Young Lolly wakes up and has an incredibly appetite for candy ... Onward to the land where candy grows ... plenty of traps and monsters threaten a doll’s life, but ... an ample supply of lollipops to fling at obtrusive enemies help mastering any challenge


Why not just eat the lollipops she already has, and chooses to "fling at obtrusive enemies"? :lol:

I have it installed with the cracked ADFs, I did it with WinUAE as I did not want to copy the ADFs to 6 disks.  Really easy to install games that way as you can mount them one by one for the installer.  Also the installer needs dfx and you cannot use FMS.  Only bad thing is the game needs PAL even though it uses a NTSC screen.

On my A500 it was a b*tch to install (the native install, not WHDLoad install). Had to rename my harddisk to dh0: and I had to install the game directory in the root before it worked. Now it works, but it crashes on exit. :-(

That was a remake. I know the game because it came out on the pc in 1995 (or something like that)
-edit-Huh? On HOL it states it's not an Amiga original game, while the (pc)review in the game magazine states that it's actually an Amiga original...
