Экшен-игра Pakacuda для ZX Spectrum

Pakacuda is a classic action maze game developed by Rabbit Software Ltd in 1983 for the ZX Spectrum. The player assumes the role of Pakacuda, a fish navigating the Caribbean Sea, aiming to consume smaller fish while avoiding four aggressive octopuses.

The gameplay involves strategic movement through a maze, where the player must eat an electric eel to gain temporary power to chase and electrocute the octopuses. This adds a layer of urgency, as the charge from the eel is short-lived, requiring quick decision-making.

Each level increases in difficulty, demanding more skill as the pace quickens. The visual design is typical of early 80s games, with simple yet engaging graphics that enhance the maze navigation experience.

Created by John F. Cain, Pakacuda is a testament to the creativity of early video game design, offering players a challenging yet straightforward gaming experience reminiscent of the era's arcade classics.
