Blockbuster

Based on the TV series of the same name, Blockbuster is a quiz game. You get two cassettes in a presentation box and hundred of questions to answer. It's a game of speed and skill. The question is flashed across the screen and the first person to hit a key can answer it.

The screen shows a 'honey-combed' grid and for each correct answer one space is filled in with your colour. The idea is to get from one side of the screen to the other and block your opponent's route.

You can either play the computer or a friend. There are also different skill levels to choose from.

A very well thought out game and clever use of questions, if you like quizzes I'd recommend it to you.

Blockbuster is written for the 48K Spectrum and will cost you £5.95.
