Yet another paperback for Dragon users packed with games.

With six chapters and 29 games, it's inevitable the usual arcade, space and adventure games will crop up. But brain twisters and board games are thrown in as well.

Tim Hartnell, the editor, claims the authors spent much time making this an illustrative book - illustrated by the variety of programs. However, I couldn't help feeling "the publishers cannot be held responsible for running mistakes that may occur".

All programs have a general introduction preceding the listings, but not all the listings have a short explanation to indicate what happens between certain lines.

And when explanations do appear, they tend to be thin. Few of them have screen shots of the game, although some have a drawing of a television with a sketch in it!

If you're looking for a cheap way to get lots of games - and you don't mind typing in long listings - then this is a book for you. Apart from that, it has little instructional value.
