Magazine Reviews (12)

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

Boffin (Addictive Games)

Some of the characters may even help you in your task although quite how is something you must discover for yourself!

Sim (Viper)

There are plenty of screens, and it will take the most digitally dextrous player quite a while to learn to dodge around the whole area collecting Simarils.

Shanghai (Software Express)

Shanghai's graphics are predictable but pleasant enough, and the animation smooth but unexciting.

Words And Pictures (Chalksoft)

This is an attempt at writing software in a field in which it is notoriously difficult to succeed... I look forward to seeing more.

Flight Path (Storm)

An excellent addition to any school's software selection.

Here And There With The Mr. Men (Mirrorsoft)

Excellent value, good fun and well-liked by those children who tried it out.

83%

Knight Lore (Ultimate)

3D arcade adventures such as this are without doubt the games of the future and Ultimate have achieved a great deal in bringing us such a sophisticated game today.

93%

Contraption (Icon)

A very polished piece of software... If any game is to keep the platform theme alive then this is probably the one that can do it.

80%

Chicane (Kempston)

Cheats will run riot with Chicane. For example, you can knock ten seconds off the record lap time by driving around the edge of the track rather than on it.

AMX Utilities (Advanced Memory Systems)

A very welcome offering... Exceptional value, and deserves to boost the popularity of the Mouse even higher.

83%

AMX Desk (Advanced Memory Systems)

A system that works very smoothly... I guess if you make continuous use of your Beeb you may find it worthwhile, but I still wonder if paper and pen isn't quicker and easier.
