Last Chance Supermarket is an exhilarating shopping experience, with death lurking around every aisle.
The game involves madly rushing around the shops late on Christmas Eve, trying to purchase a few special things for the big day. You only get one chance a year to really show your family how much you care, so make sure you get everything on that list! Try not to buy too much extra stuff though as money is tight and your wife is fussy about clutter! Above all, however, please don't get yourself killed by a speeding shopping cart...
Use your mouse to steer the shopping cart around and sidle up to the things you wish to purchase, whereupon pressing the spacebar will pop them into your trolley.
I hope you'll forgive my rather 'loose' implementation of the theme this year round, the idea is there, but certainly no definite 'You only get one' mechanic. Unless you want to count the fact that you only get one trolley?!
Regardless, I hope you have some fun with it - certainly was a blast to make.
Now excuse me while I tumble into bed, I'll be back in the morning to play your game, if you leave a comment that is :)
