Cocoa and the Time Machine

The story

Cast adrift through space and time, Cocoa's Time Burrow materialises in the 15th Century. The Time Machine has used all its fuel, so Cocoa has no way home, and he is badly craving parsley.

He must use his skills and wits to refuel the Time Machine, recover valuable artefacts and eat parsley. A pandemic has caused panic buying, so parsley is scarce and must be rationed. The King has a problem of his own. Can Cocoa help?

Features

  • A clumsy, time-travelling Mini Lop rabbit on his first adventure.
  • Find fuel for the Time Machine, collect artefacts, avoid hazards such as lava crabs, and ration the parsley.
  • Kempston and Sinclair joysticks supported.
