Espionage
By Modular Resources
BBC Model B

 
Published in Home Computing Weekly #100

Now I have to admit that this program is different! Written entirely in Basic, the aim is to find the spy that has moled his way into the management of MR Oil.

You enter the company as a detective, but you have a cover role in the business which you must maintain by not making too many mistakes in your work each day.

By keeping your wits about you as you read the memos that require replies, you should find a certain person requesting information that is not strictly in his area of responsibility. This is your mole and, as soon as you are sure, you report to the directors and the company is secure again.

There are seven different roles for you to take and you learn a great deal about oil as you play this game. The constant rewinding of the cassette is a pain, you need to do this after each part of the game in order to go on to the next part.

Interesting, but not as enthralling as I have expected. Overpriced, too.
