Devastatingly good value; comprising five games on one tape (and they all loaded!). Blagger is a 30-screen platform indulgence. Collect all the keys and open the safes on each and every frame.

Killer Watt has you flying a saucer around a cavern popping light bulbs, avoiding walls and zapping dolphins which leap up from scattered pools. Purple ducks and bouncing bombs populate the trickier levels. A really good game.

Panic Planet is a straightforward version of the arcade classic. Dig holes and bash the red monsters when they fall in. Take too long about it and they leap out and change colour.

Eagle Empire sends flocks of phoenixes and waves of eagles to do battle with your space ship before you get to kapow the emperor in his egg-fortress: harmless fun for zappers.

Bug Blaster is a pseudonym for Centipede and is as good as any I've seen with hordes of invertebrates to torment you.
