Punchy

Punchy is set, as the name might suggest, in a theater setting. It is an
adaptation of “Punch & Judy”: you are the hunchback Bobby, your goal is to
make your way across sixteen theater stages to rescue the beautiful Judy from
the Punch. Each stage is filled with the typical hazards of a traditional
play, like crocodiles, custard pies and rotten tomatoes, as well as the pits
that must be crossed via moving platforms. You’ll sometimes have the chance to
catch a sausage flying around in the air as you move along.

Even though it is a rather early game, the Spectrum version features some
interesting speech samples using a technique that was very uncommon at that
time.
