Aim of the game
Zorro, the famous Mexican hero, sees the evil Colonel Garcia
abducting a beautiful maiden. As he's a hero, it's up to him (and you)
to rescue Garcia's captive...
Game play
ZORRO is basically an arcade adventure. The overall plan is
to get to Garcia's jail and release the captive, but there are a number
of tasks you'll need to complete first. The first of these is the
recovery of her hankerchief, for some reason. You will need to collect
several other objects in order to gain further objects until your
ultimate goal is reached. The important items are easily identified -
they flash until picked up (by simply walking over them) and are then
automatically added to your inventory. Only one object can be picked
up at a time. Having been collected, the objects can then be used as
keys to solve puzzles and open doors.
Comments
"A good idea with some nice touches, that fails eventually
in presentation".

A very badly dated game, unfortunately, and rather simplistic.
