About Frenzy
Originally released in 1983, this was one of the very earliest releases from Ocean Software, which would go on to be one of Europe's biggest game developers and publishers of the 1980s/90s. Frenzy is a simple riff on an arcade classic, released for the ZX Spectrum. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version.
Search the labarinthine levels for the exit, while surviving an ever-increasing onslaught of deadly robots.

pretty good game it feels like berserk but with a bit lag on the controls also sometimes you cant blast the enemies must be a minor bug still rpetty fun3 found this helpful
I normally wouldn't post a review for only seventeen minutes, but these Speccy games need reviews! Frenzy is exactly what you think it is, but this port is quite a bit simpler than the original, but far more difficult due to design choices. First, you cannot kills the robots unless you are shooting directly at their heads. Second, Evil Otto (who looks more like a Lemon Head candy) is SUPER fast, and unless you are close to an exit he will run you down. So overall I recommend this game because it is dirt cheap ($1.99 USD) and fun. And if you have a Steam Deck and set FPS to 50 and the TDP down to 3 watts, you will get more than six hours out of your battery! Will I play this game six hours? Probably not all at once, but I can see myself picking this game up randomly over the years.2 found this helpful
GAME SUCKS Ok, so i actually own both the orig Berzerk and Frenzy arcade cabinets, so if your expecting orig game play this is definitly NOT it Suck factors: 1: Head shots only from you. So you cannot shoot robots from below or in the body, but they can shoot you anywhere. 2: No points if robot hits the wall 3: Evil otto waaaaay too fast compare to you. Game sucks. Get an emulator and play the originals
It's put me into a Frenzy!!!! (I have several STDs now)
