One of the worst horizontal scrolling on the Amiga.

Also known as 'She-Fox'. I love the game, I don't know why. Maybe because I also love 'Thundercats', too... ?

Heresy! That's Corinne Russell not Cassandra Peterson! Anyway, her digitized pose and the controversy around it are probably the only things this game could be worth remembering for.

It's your typical ''yet another'' 8-bit-era platformer with stiff animation and controls. Past the third level, the only thought that crosses the player's mind is: "how much more of this am I to endure?"

Setting a cheat/trainer is but an act of mercy to put this disaster out of its misery.

Technically is bad executed, and as a game is very simple. But for any obscure reason, I found it entertaining and better than I expected first time I had seen screenshots in a magazine... I thought it was thundercats with a girl...

Vixen moves very sexy

I agree with Dazdarian, this is not for everyone.

There's just something oddly appealing in Vixen's clumsy gameplay. As well as its…hrm…interesting graphics. I honestly found the game entertaining, and return to it from time to time. But this is not for everyone. It’s for those with….refined taste.

The way she dances while drowning is indeed a highlight. Vixen reminds me of the Thundercats game, it has some similarities, including the bad gameplay.

Amusing for about 3 minutes. I like the way she dances when you throw her into the water. This game is obviously patterned after Rygar. So Rygar was also repetitive, but at least was smooth and playable, and still had more ideas than this bomb.

Vixen moves like molasses, collision detection is poor and the enemy graphics look like they were drawn by first graders.

The only thing that makes me curious is, how come the game is so DARK in WinUAE? I have tried several different configurations, but this game seems to be using some weird programming that doesn't emulate well. Anyone else got this effect?

Quite fun for a moment. There could have been certain amount of stages to finish. Now the whole things seems to be a bit pointless. Good music by Jason Brooke.

Ahhh. Cassandra Peterson! Was worth the dosh just to look at the big poster of the leopard skin clan lovely! Well, maybe not as this played like a fox with no legs. It was amazing in those days how sex sold. Well, it had me sucked in. for Cassandra. for the game.

Ouch.. This was BAD! Even the title screen couldn't get my 'hopes' up.

I guess a lot of young boys fired all their ammo on the intro screen...

Bland, flat, boring: this fired all of its ammo on the intro screen , there was virtually nothing left to see (or play...) after that.
