The PAL version of the port has a few additional issues. [[Thief|Thieves]] steal [[key]]s in addition to [[boot]]s, which renders [[All Full]] unsolvable. Additionally, level 122, [[Totally Fair]], is missing and replaced with level 131, [[Totally Unfair]]. The level order otherwise matches the original Lynx game (citation needed). | The PAL version of the port has a few additional issues.

== Amiga & Atari ST == | |||
The Amiga and Atari ST rulesets are nearly identical (notable exceptions being that ST runs at 6 moves per second verses Amiga and other's 5, and ST having fast teeth). Blobs move at full speed except in [[Blobnet]], and block cloners are sometimes glitchy (easiest to see in [[Tossed Salad]] and [[On The Rocks]]). [[Monster Lab]] is actually [[Colony]] rotated 180 degrees, likewise [[Three Doors]] is [[Goldkey]] rotated 180 degrees. Much like the C64 version, and any PAL version handled by U.S. Gold, thieves steal keys and boots. | |||
Interestingly, the game contains a cheat code system, if the player presses the f key during game play, the game will flip upside down, display the message: | |||
"MY HAND-HELD CAN | |||
DO THIS AS WELL! | |||
HI TO RUTH, FLU, | |||
BUFF, EMMA, JESS, | |||
TIM, BEN, ADAM, | |||
PIPPA, IVAN, SCAMP, | |||
WORM, CHRIS, JUDE, | |||
AND DARLING TESSA." | |||
and then allow the player to enter a message. | |||

| "I THINK THEREFORE I AM." || Chips left set to 0 | |||

|- | |||
| "SAGITTARIANS MAKE BETTER LOVERS." || Unlimited [[key|keys]] and [[item|items]] that can't be removed | |||
|} | |||
These effects persist through level completion and death. The only way to remove them is to exit to the main menu. | |||
