Think!

Remember Connect Four? Well Think! is a computerised and updated version of that.

Counters are moved in from the bottom or the right hand edge, shifting the other counters in that row or column along one. Four in a line wins the game.

This may all sound simple, but in practie it isn't. The computer also plays a strong game - so don't expect to beat it easily.

Think

The conversion is straight from the Spectrum with only minor graphics changes and a lack of a screen dump facility - which is a shame as an Epson dump wouldnt have taken up too much memory.

The game is icon-driven with pretty pictures of all the options. The start up screen is just full of icons with many different options available - blitz game, problem game, speed game, colour or green screen, defined colours. You name it - it's got it.

Overall, the game is quite good with plenty to occupy you, though I don't know exactly who the game will appeal to, play it and see - you never know, you might like it!
