Yolanda: The Ultimate Challenge (1990)

A notoriously difficult platformer for Amiga and Atari ST, where you take the part of Yolanda, offspring of the mighty Hercules himself, cursed by Hera. There are twelve tasks to complete and a trainer level, over fifty levels randomly selected. The player may have to play up to five screens to complete a task. The twelth task can only be played if you have completed the first eleven tasks.

Storyline

Beautiful princess Yolanda has offened the Goddess Hera. Jealous of Yolandas beauty, Hera has placed a curse upon the princess. She has told Yolanda that any man she falls in love with will die horribly within a week of their meeting. The curse will be lifted only if Yolanda can re-enact the twelve labours of legendary Hercules. Distraught, and faced with a life of loneliness, Yolanda gathers her courage and sets out on the tasks, armed only with the advice given by the messenger god, Hermes. The solution to her task may not be obvious and there will be times when you will have to place your life in the hands of the Gods if success is to be yours!
