This is the newest remake of the classic 8-bit isometric 3D adventure game Head Over Heels. It took us 2 years to complete it and we hope you like it!
Head Over Heels was released, um, a while ago. Around about 1987 if I recall correctly, and it was immediately praised in the press as being quite the bestest thing ever. Not only was it a huge game for its time, it also had great graphics and was very addictive - if somewhat punishing in its difficulty level.

PPC, G3 400Mhz or better, Mac OS X 10.1 or later.
Be the first to recommend a similar software title.
A perfect remake of a brilliant spectrum game. Trouble is, having recently played this new version and then the original version, the memory of the brilliant eighties classic kind of loses its appeal!!! Well Done.

Ace game when it was 1st released.
Takes me back many years, to a summer school holiday well spent playing this 1st time around!
Great to see games like this on the Mac/OSX - MORE PLEASE! How about Sabre Wulf and other pre 'super computer era' games.
Get this game and forget about the XBox and PS2 for a while.

Had trouble downloading it, and then the program crashed when I switched to full-screen mode, so I never actually played the game.
Force quit seemed to work until I discovered I wasn't able to eject the disk image.... I had to use Process Viewer to quit an HoH process.

Even today it still stands as a brilliantly designed title and has never really been bettered in the isometric adventure genre.
