Harvey Smith Showjumper

With a flick of a riding crop, a quick dig of the spurs and a cry of Gee Up, Harvey Smith canters into the show ring, the latest in a seemingly never-ending list of "names" only too eager to endorse a computer game.

Nothing wrong with that, of course. It helps sell the game, or so the software house hopes. But one can't help thinking that the majority of these "names" have never been near a computer.

So let's forget about Harvey's "involvement" and look at Software Projects' offering.

Showjumper offers a selection of twelve courses for you to tackle. Up to six riders may compete against each other over a selection of twelve courses. Joystick control enables you to make the horse walk, canter, gallop, jump and turn.

For anybody who is into showjumping, the game should prove very entertaining.
