Turmoil (1984 video game)

Turmoil is a platform game released in 1984 for the ZX Spectrum, and in 1986 for the MSX[1] by Bug Byte.

The player takes control of Mechanic Mick who has been employed by a rich Arabian Sheikh.

[2] The playing area consists of a number of platforms, ladders, conveyor belts and swinging ropes which Mick must negotiate.

[3] Also present on each level are a number of enemies (resembling Arabs) who will attack Mick and cause him to lose a life.

[4] Dave Nicholls of Your Spectrum said that "the springs are a great idea",[4] while CRASH called it a "slick, well executed program".
