Magazine Reviews (8)

Linked reviews are available to view in full on this site.

Aabatron (Bevan)

Having a number of rooms is perhaps more of a gimmick than a useful addition to the game, but the screens are well put together and, as a variation on the straight 'blast the aliens rigid' concept, Aabatron makes a very playable game.

Gateway To Karos (Acornsoft)

An adventure for everyone. It is traditional stuff, magic, caverns, dragons and all, but exceptional in quality. Old hands will want it for their collections. Beginners could do worse than start here.

Exploring Adventures On The BBC (Duckworth)

Not an exciting book. You are unlikely to think you are getting your money's worth, unless you are going to sit down and type in the case study adventure and read the appropriate section as you do so.

Airbrush (Peter Sharpe)

Some patience is required to use this program... The procedure of repeatedly applying a measure of spray and then moving the cursor and/or adjusting its size is necessarily very time-consuming.

61%

Plutonium Plunder (Micro Power)

It's about time that selling an arcade game relied on more than multi-coloured, smoothly-animated sprites and a storyline creamed from an early Asimov novella.

Fletcher's Castle (Fernleaf)

A useful addition to the primary school software library and a pleasant improvement on drill and practice.

74%

Women And Computing: The Golden Opportunity (Papermac)

Much of the book's focus is very narrow. Some suggestions make obvious sense: word processing and book indexing... but I think the substantial prior training or experience required for successful freelance programming, consultancy or computer journalism is underestimated.

Computers Mean Business (Pan)

A well written and relevant introduction to computers in business.
