Maths With A Story 1 (BBC Soft) (Acorn Electron)

Confuzion (Incentive) (BBC/Electron)

Simple in concept, hellishly difficult to play and a challenge to anyone who likes to test their speed of thought as well as their speed of reaction.

85%

Writing Educational Programs (Papermac) (BBC/Electron)

Magic Mushrooms (Acornsoft) (Acorn Electron)

Positively encourages creative activity... In a word - excellent.

95%

Colourcopter (ESM) (BBC Model B)

The program notes give a clear indication of the aims of each program, and some ideas that can be used to develop the skills practised.

Repton (Superior) (Acorn Electron)

For the hardened games player Repton may prove a little too easy but, for those of us mere mortals, the game provides an exciting challenge with a good balance between reward and failure.

80%

Electron Advanced Graphics Workbook (McGraw Hill) (Acorn Electron)

An excellent Electron-specific graphics book.

Moortown 1984 (Pro-Golf Series) (BBC Model B)

75%

The Medical Profession (Careerdata) (BBC Model B)

In view of the potential market, it might have been more sensible to produce a disc-based program with access to a much larger database, instead of a single program limited by space in memory.
