Another package of games from Tansoft, comprising a varied selection with just about something for everybody. The best of the bunch are a computer version of the old favourite Hangman and a sort of 3D noughts and crosses.

Hangman can be modified to take an alternative selection of words, so that when you have mastered the original set, you can substitute your own. One slight snag - I am sure the random selection of words could be made a little more random.

3D Link is a game for clear thinkers. You can play either against an opponent or Oric and I think, with practise, you could develop some quite sophisticated play.

I will not say much about the other three games, since they are of limited appeal and will probably only interest the youngest players for any length of time.

All five games are recorded slowly and are interconnected in the programs, and I found it very tedious having to wait so long to load and play each different game. However, there were no loading problems.

P.W.
