Alex Kidd in High Tech World:

.

In this game you play Alex Kidd, Crown Prince of the planet Radaction. You are known by many names including hero, all round radical dude and the little guy with big ears. Whilst being a hero, you're still a kidd at heart. That's why you got all exited when your part time friend Paul told you about a new rad video arcade (High Tech World) It wasn't too far away ... just through the forest and past the village. After Paul mentioned about all the new cool stuff there, he mentioned a map with directions. The only problem was that the map had been torn into eight pieces and scattered in different places around the castle. Three guesses who did that. That rat Paul. But who cares, it's another challenge for the Kidd! You must start now by finding the eight pieces of the map, get out of the castle, avoid the ninja throughout the forest, find a travel pass in the village, get through the checkpoint and manage through the animal forest to get to High Tech World all by 5pm, the time it closes. You'd better hurrey as it's 9am. 

The castle is a preety large area to cover ground. There are nasty traps and tests here as well to catch you out. The traps are:

Alex's mum
broken staircase
armour
broken computer
ashes (don't touch them!)

Alex's teacher Mary will test him on general knowledge and the girl servants will test him to guess all their names to gain map pieces.

At around 11:00, in the ninja forest, a wizard appears and gives you a little advice.
