Game Review & Impressions
---------------------------------------------------
Released in 1987, Star Paws is a rather curious game. Although the title might convey some kind of parody involving the Sci-Fi movie franchise, the real inspiration here seems to have been Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote of Looney Tunes game.

The plot involves some contrived nonsense regarding Space Griffin's, a bird-like inhabitant of extraterrestrial world's which is so delectable, the craze for turning the things into fast food threatens to destabilise global markets.

To the rescue comes Captain Pawstrong, who must capture 20 of these birds on an alien world. You must use all manner of traps and gadgets to catch the Griffin's, including laser guns, explosives, rocket boots, as well as missile-firing artillery device.

The majority of the griffins can be found wandering the planet surface, but some have sneaked into a series of abandoned mine tunnels, so you'll need to grab a miner's lamp and do a little spelunking to find the rest.

It's all a bit weird, quite honestly. The gameplay isn't particularly inspired, and the controls feel rather cludgy, especially when it comes to activating the various gadgets.

However, Rob Hubbard produced another cracking tune for the game, which is the best thing about this oddity.
