There are quite a few boxing games around for various machines at the moment, but this has got to be one of the worst.

You have a number of foes to fight all with apparently different attributes to their boxing style. The only difference was that they took more hits to knock them down.

The graphics are crude and jerky and do not change whenever you change opponent. The boxing technique of the opponents seems to be to wait until you hit them and then they hit you back; if you back off and stand still then so do they; hardly realistic at all!

The game is so easy to play that the second time I played it I got all the way to the last match and only narrowly missed demolishing the last man. However, the program still thought I'd won and put up a picture of the belt and called me the champion - very odd.

This game is compatible with the Amstrad speech synth and stereo amp, though even this wouldn't reduce the incredible amount of boredom that this game encourages.

I recommend that you don't go anywhere near this game.
