Title
This stuff is incredibly fun and competitive in two-player mode. You play the spies as you need to get items(hidden in various parts of furniture and rooms) to leave the level as well as laying traps for each other. It's a deadly chase of cat and mouse that requires forethought and instinct when playing, and has some deadly fight scenes whenever both of the Spies end up in the same room. A800 version gets (3.5).

The NES port is quite great! It has improved graphics but translates the mechanics perfectly, and is an improvement over the original Atari 8-bit verison. Quick to pick up and play. (3.5)

    I wish to update this page with all its different ports, as the GBC cart is the one I grew up playing and it looks alot prettier than the NES and Atari version listed here. So peculiar realizing how difficult it is to find concrete citations about obscure game release history, though. Like I own this game but googling around for concrete proof of its existence was harder than I thought! XD Maybe I'll come back and do it someday. Guess I'll just rate the NES version for now
