Olympics

CRL's Olympics contains not 10 but 14 of the events to be found in the Olympics. Side one of the cassette contains eight events which are all held inside the stadium and side two six events held outside the stadium, including the marathon, cycling and canoeing.

To play this game, you merely have to press one key to give your team mate more energy and stamina to move faster. CRL have done well trying to represent the Olympic events as well as they can, but all the movements are far too slow.

The graphics are quite average, but the game's not at all challenging and, as I said before, incredibly slow. I definitely wouldn't buy or play this game.
