Time Machine

The time-travelling escapades of Professor Potts got a C&VG Hit! a few issues back, and how the era-hopping egghead has emerged on the C64 and Amstrad. How do these translations compare against the Amiga version?

Very well, actually. The simplicity of the 16-bit game has been carried across infact, along with the playability. The graphics are colourful, if a little chunky, and sound is also put to good use.

A flippin' good exploration game with loadsa puzzles that's guaranteed to keep you fixed to your stick for hours on end.

C64

Bundles of fourth-dimensional fun that's great fun for arcade adventurers. Highly recommended.

Amstrad

Similar to the C64 version, if a bit more colourful. Grab it at the first opportunity.
