Uncle Poo
Diatec • 1983


Navigate twisting mazes as a comical elderly gentleman in Uncle Poo, a cooperative maze game for two players released by Diatec in 1983. Players guide their character through increasingly complex levels, collecting scattered treasures while avoiding various animal foes. A unique gameplay element involves using flatulence to defeat enemies and roller skates to quickly traverse the screen, adding a quirky touch to the experience. The objective is simple: gather all the items within each maze to advance to the next level. Two players can work together or compete for treasure as they navigate the pixelated environments. Uncle Poo utilizes a Zilog Z80 processor and features a color palette of 256 shades, providing a vibrant visual experience for its time. Players control their character using a four-way joystick and single button to maneuver through the challenges presented in this lighthearted maze game.
