Stephew Crow, winner of the C&VG Golden Joystick Award for best programmer of the year, has converted his Spectrum classic Starquake for the C64, and it's definitely worth waiting for.

You are Blob! Oh yes, you'd better believe it. It means Bio-Logically Operated Being. You must stop an unstable planet from exploding and taking another thousand planets with it.

Not an easy task, as a few million nasty creatures don't seem to see it your way. Know what I mean?

The game action is set over 500 screens, and I'm sure the aliens get meaner on each one.

As for the graphics, well, they are fantastic. It is very comical watching Blob prancing about. There are some really ace tunes there as well.

The game is extremely addictive - it had me glued to the C64 for hours. A must for Commodore owners.

If you wonder why your Spectrum-owning friends have not been around lately, I bet they've bought Starquake! It's brill!!!
