Boulderdash (Statesoft) (Commodore 64)

There are so many nice touches in this game that it's hard to pick one that stands out.

Strontium Dog (Quicksilva) (Commodore 64)

A solid shoot out with a few nice twists that will keep you interested on a rainy afternoon.

Braxx Bluff (Micromega) (Spectrum 48K)

Should provide several hours challenging gameplay on your Spectrum.

Black Knight (Simulated Interdisc) (Commodore 64)

It looks and sounds simple - but, believe me, it's a real challenge to beat!

Jet Pac (Ultimate) (BBC Model B)

A good shoot-'em-up game for the BBC.

The Perils Of Bear George (Cheetahsoft) (Spectrum 48K)

A great game to buy for your little sister or brother but its four screens are not really challenging enough for the seasoned Spectrum gamer.

Ant Attack (Quicksilva) (Commodore 64)

An above-average game for the C64. The graphics for the ants aren't as good as the Spectrum version, though.

Special Delivery (Creative Sparks) (Spectrum 48K)

Special Delivery will make a novel stocking filler for your favourite computer gamer who still believes in Santa!

Tapper (U. S. Gold) (Spectrum 48K)

Tapper really is quite unlike anything that has even been tried before... The Commodore 64 version is fast, with excellent cartoon-style graphics and nice jingles.

Strangeloop (Virgin Games) (Spectrum 48K)

I found Strangeloop amusing to play. It certainly has that all important lasting appeal and, with a game save facility, you don't have to sit up all night to beat it!

Jet Set Willy (Software Projects) (Commodore 64)

I rate the game higher than Manic Miner and it is certainly in the Top Five best ever games for the C64.

Stagecoach (Creative Sparks) (Spectrum 48K)

A game that's well put together with a comprehensive options menu at the start of the game.

Ancipital (Llamasoft) (Commodore 64)

Jeff Minter has come up with a real winner here!

Raid Over Moscow (U. S. Gold) (Commodore 64)

The premise is a bit questionable but there's no doubt that Raid Over Moscow is an extremely slick games program.

Travel With Trashman (New Generation) (Spectrum 48K)

If you liked Trashman I, you won't be disappointed with this sequel.

Hareraiser: Prelude (Haresoft) (Spectrum 48K)

I can see little reason why this puzzle should be published as software.

Eureka! (Domark) (Commodore 64)

With or without the prize, this package has got to be terrific value!

Countdown To Meltdown (Creative Sparks) (Commodore 64/128)

You won't learn to get the best out of Countdown To Meltdown in ten minutes - but it's well worth the effort.

Sinbad (Virgin Games) (BBC Model B)

One of the dullest games I've ever seen for the Beeb.

American Football (Argus Press) (Spectrum 48K)

Great stuff - and even a five foot weakling can play it without fear of terminal damage!
