Comments
"The all-time classic of arcade games on the Spectrum."

Now
This was the game that spawned a thousand clones. MM was the
original ladders and levels game from which all others are (reputedly)
descended and is, needless to say, a classic. It is still surprisingly
playable, even if the theme tune is unforgivably bad...
