K-Tel are well known as the people who bring you those giant compilation LPs full of greatest hits. Now they've moved into the world of computer software with a range of "Doublesider" tapes for the Spectrum.

One of the first features games called It's Only Rock 'N Roll and Tomb Of Dracula - both adventure-style games with some graphics thrown in.

In It's Only Rock 'N Roll, you set out to become a rock superstar - and the road to stardom is a tough one. You have to write songs - with the help of your Spectrum - raise enough money to go on tour or play concerts, make records, hire and fire managers, just like real life. It's like a computerised game of Monopoly set in the pop world.

The second half of this "Doublesider" is Tomb Of Dracula, a standard maze-style adventure with some amusing graphics thrown in. I found myself getting killed off too quickly, but I think that's more my fault than the way the game is put together!

The documentation for this game is much better and enhances the playability.

All in all, this innovation from K-Tel is pretty good value for money. Two enjoyable games for £6.95, available now from Spectrum game stockists.
