All this Repton nostalgia reminds me, Kuru Kuru Kururin looks uncannily like Balloons on the old BBC Micro. Balloons had you guiding a balloon through a maze, with it swinging backwards and forwards rather than spinning round and round. Same basic premise though.

I loved the first game but it did drive me to distraction - I was always dead jittery after I'd finished playing it (read: losing at it)- hope the next one's a bit more forgiving :)

Kuru Kuru was the only game I had for my GBA for a while, basically because it was the only one that interested me when I bought it, and if Advance Wars, Golden Sun, etc etc had been around then, I probably wouldn't have touched it. Which would have been a *big* mistake because it's an excellent game and ideally suited to the GBA. I still go back to it regularly.

Played it on an emulator for a quarter hour or so, I thought it was quite dull ... though it's probably more fun in the original form.

if you shop around you can get Kuru Kuru Kururin for £14.99, can't remember where.

You can get it for that price in Dixons if you get the dopey shop assistant who sells it you for five quid less than the label price. Yay!

I saw Asda selling some games for £15 (including Columns), so some of their stores may have it for that price.

Now I've just got to find somewhere to buy the GBA console itself...

Oh...and Airwolf on the BBC was quite similar where you had to pilot the chopper through some caves (??) but if you wanted to get anywhere fast you had to swing the copter sideways and usually whack the tail into a wall. Or something like that.
