Angels (zosya.net) (Spectrum 48K/128K/+2/+3)

A well-executed fighter, and a technical marvel. It's slightly reigned back by loose fighting mechanics, but you'll be too busy starting in awe at the game to notice this much.

The Doom Of The Pond (Furillo Productions) (Spectrum 128K/+2)

Highly recommended... Detailed and atmospheric storytelling that captures the imagination.

Sergeant Seymour RobotCop (Codemasters) (Spectrum 48K/128K)

A nice break from the usual brain straining, puzzle-laden adventures that Seymour is usually accustomed to - a nice bit of fun.

Rival Gangs (ZXPresh) (Spectrum 128K/+2)

A pretty decent, if not simple, GTA clone... This could become something a lot bigger should the correct tweaks be made.

The Goblin (HICKS) (Spectrum 48K/128K/+2/+3)

A good single-screen platformer with enough uniqueness to make it stand out in a saturated genre.

Nothing (Gogin) (Spectrum 128K/+2/+3)

A brilliant adaption of a popular indie game of the same name, made all the better as it's running on the Spectrum.

Shovel Adventure (Pat Morita Team) (Spectrum 128K/+2)

A genuinely fun arcade game with Pac-Man and Space Panic elements... Where it excels in in its level design - it keeps up its momentum over the 40 levels.

The Last Escape (Ariel Endaraues) (Spectrum 48K/128K/+2/+3)

A rather engaging stealth game with a great war theme setting.
