About this game

In Dodgy Geezers, you are out of prison after serving three years for your role in the Long Ditton Spaghetti Caper. With one final job standing between you and a life on the Costa Bravo, you must explore the town, reunite your old gang and uncover the details of a major heist.

To succeed, you will need to earn the respect of local criminal elements and prove your leadership before carrying out the robbery. The game presents location descriptions as text, with pictures in some locations except on Acorn versions. Commands are entered through the keyboard.
