Sir Rupert Tophat is in trouble – his precious hat museum is being invaded by giant poisonous spiders, and only you can save the day (and the hats!). Help Sir Rupert hurl wooden barrels down the building and squash those pesky spiders before it's all too late and they overpower him. If you win the level, you can move on to fresh challenges to save Sir Rupert's other properties, and ultimately his life, as even more vicious spiders get in on the act and launch further attacks. The power is yours… This game is easy to learn and use and suitable for everyone (except maybe arachnophobics, who should play at their peril).
