Title: Les Ripoux screens
Post by: ComSoft6128 on 11:31, 16 January 21
Small slideshow (6 screens) from the 1987 French game Les Ripoux based on the film of the same name.

These screens are stored on side B of the disc as standard Mode 1 17K screens so could be loaded into the advanced Art Studio or other art packages.

Quote from IMDB reviewer:

"First, "Les Ripoux" was maybe the first video game I bought to play then on our TO9+ computer. So it was maybe in 1987. The game was incredible funny to play as the goal was similar to the movie: amass as much money as you can as a bad cop! To do that, you used a sort of Google map limited the Paris district called the golden triangle. There, you met crooks that you had to make talk by choosing lines of dialogs. Maybe the graphics were static but the game-play was really stunning!"
