Mayhem in Monsterland - 25th Anniversary Edition (C64)

It's hard to believe it has been 25 years since one of the finest platform games ever to grace the Commodore 64 was released.  Back in 1993 Mayhem In Monsterland astonished C64 owners with it's incredibly fast super-smooth scrolling, cartoon style graphics and super-slick gameplay.  And now, 25 years later, Psytronik Software in association with www.infinitelives.tv is extremely proud to present the MAYHEM IN MONSTERLAND - 25th Anniversary Edition!

 

For this special edition of the game we've teamed up with the original programming team APEX PRODUCTIONS and have worked together on this specially re-packaged release of the game.  For the first time Mayhem in Monsterland will be available to buy in a stunning full colour collector's edition box packed with bonus goodies that are detailed below.

Mayhem didn't enjoy living in Monsterland; it was always cold, it was always windy, and it rained every Sunday. It was clearly no place for a cute baby dinosaur. 

However, rumour has it that Monsterland has not always been such an unpleasant place to live. The sun used to shine onto green fields with luscious vegetation and scenic mountains... until an apprentice magic dinosaur had too much cactus juice and decided to practice a few of his master's spells. the next morning, when all the monsters awoke, Monsterland had been transformed into a very dark and unhappy place. Mayhem wants to change Monsterland back, but has no magic powers to do this, so he enlists the help of his friend Theo Saurus, the dinosaur responsible for Monsterland's ghastly state. Theo lives below Monsterland in a hidden cave to avoid the wrath of the monsters - here he waits for Mayhem to collect magic dust. With this in his possession, he flies across Monsterland sprinkling the magic dust in order to transform it back to a happy place. 

However, because Theo is only a trainee, his magic doesn't always work as well as he'd like it to. Some of the magic dust that he spreads over Monsterland is a little excessive, and clumps together to form magic stars. This magic could be dangerous in the wrong hands, so Mayhem must collect any magic stars he finds to prevent any further disasters.
