Synopsis

Plot

Scarthorpe is the sort of town where even the dogs carry flick knives! Where there's a only one road in, and that's a one-way street!

The sort of town where rebuilding means a new coat of paint, and where people queue up to queue up for a job!

Not many people come to Scarthorpe, and even fewer leave.

The church bells chime three in the morning...the streets are deserted...now is your chance to Escape from Scarthorpe!

Notes

In 2021, Darren Higgs produced an unofficial port of the game for the BBC Micro.

Fun to play, despite the slowness of the game. Reuses some graphics from "Invincible Island", Pete Cooke's first foray into text adventures.
