Titus the Fox: To Marrakech and Back

About

Titus the Fox: To Marrakech and Back is a 1992 platformer where a fox named Titus treks across the Sahara to rescue his kidnapped love interest Suzy. Players navigate 15 levels filled with hazards like dogs, bees, and construction workers. The main mechanic lets you chuck objects or pick up enemies from behind to throw them at other threats. The action blends simple controls with timing challenges as you dodge and redirect dangers to clear paths. The game stands out for its early 90s charm and cross-platform presence on DOS, Amiga, and even Amstrad CPC. Its saving system requires entering code-based passwords unique to each machine, a quirky design choice that added replay value for its era. While modest by modern standards, the 15-level structure and projectile-throwing twist kept many players engaged, with some retro forums noting it as a surprising standout in the early platforming scene.
