Goody

DOS - 1987
Also available on: Amstrad CPC - MSX - ZX Spectrum

Goody is a fun 2D action/adventure platformer from Spanish developer Opera Soft. You play a small thief bent on robbing a Spanish bank.

Before embarking on this venture, you’ll need to find appropriate tools for the job, including torch, pincers, etc. Once you gather all the necessary tools, you will be ready to launch the crime. But things are not as easy as they seem, of course. Along the way to the bank, you will have to avoid or deal with policemen, gorillas, kung-fu experts, weeping women, paper airplanes, and other obstacles in your way.

Anyone who likes Codemasters’ classic Dizzy series will probably enjoy Goody. It is a fun game in the “video adventure” 2D action/adventure genre that was very popular in Spain in the 80s – 90s.

While the game is a traditional adventure in that you need to use inventory items in the correct places, it also requires the same combination of good reflexes and timing as typical platformers do. Sharp cartoon graphics with a lot of detail (even with the limited 4-color CGA palette), smooth animations, fun puzzles, and a charming atmosphere makes Goody well worth a look for action and adventure fans alike. Two thumbs up, way up!

GOODY 24 Oct. 2026

Ivan, you should be inside a special kiosk-looking box (the closest one is in the leftmost sewer screen). Then hold ENTER and press either O or P to select the tool, SPACE will place it inside. TIP1: Use the blowtorch there. TIP2: I suggest you buy the key.

Joe: cursor keys are working fine here in DOSbox. Even if they aren't working for you, you can reconfigure the keys using DOSbox.
