This was a delightful little action puzzler with elements of maze games and Snake. I still frequently go back to it today. The "explosion" sound still makes me jump every time. Atari User featured Doctor Boris on the cover of the issue that played host to its BASIC listing as "Game of the Year". A bold claim indeed, but this is certainly one of my favourite type-in games from the magazine's run.
