Take to some of the most famous centre courts in the world in the Amiga version of Palace's excellent and unusual tennis simulation. The Amiga version is remarkably similar to the C64 version, which has to be testament to how good the 8-bit version was, but there are a few improvements.

The weird, yet beautifully animated, vector graphic players are filled in in this version, you can pause the game and rotate the court to any angle (so you can even play 2D viewed-from-above-tennis if you really want to), and the sound has been significantly upgraded.

A remarkably accurate rendition of the BBC Wimbledon theme greets you on loading the game, and the programmers at Sensible Software have sampled a real Wimbledon umpire's voice to read out the scores.

Innovative and very playable adaptation of the sport. Marvellous.
