Maurice Minor (J. Morrison Micros)

Right from the moment this game first loads you know it's going to be good. An auto-run with a very nice display page. Then it asks your name, tough if you have more than six letters in your name, like me, as the computer only takes six letters. Then a choice of skill is chosen, not just 1-6 but ranging from Grannie, through Wizzkid, to Kingpin. Six levels in all. Sorry to waffle on but I do feel that the beginning of a program is just as important.

Well, the idea is to drive your stray "maurice minor" round a race course, avoiding crash barriers, oil slicks, and of course the oncoming cars. To gain and lose speed the fire button is used. To steer; the joystick. One slight moan is that the screen scrolls from right to left, I would much prefer top to bottom. Also, on the subject of moans, I think ten miles is a little too far to go, especailly in a "maurice minor"!
