Help finding game

Post by haywardb »

I'm sure this is like finding a needle in a haystack, but I have to try. When I was younger, the late 80s or so, my friend had a game I always wanted to play, but he never let me. I would love to find it, but I don't remember much. What I do remember is that you could built the game board and then move around and play in it. It might have been made with blocks of bricks...I know there were ladders or something like that you could put in. Other than that, it's a blur. Please email me at [email protected] if you know what I'm talking about, or reply here because I would LOVE to see it again. Thanks.

i think i know the game (but not the name :( )

i believe it was made by Solleau. You were the fat dude and you had to pick up blue blocks (by hitting the down arrow) and use them to make stairs/holes. The idea was to move the fat dude to this yellow thing that looks like an african drum kinda thing.
