Mouse Trap (Tynesoft)

If you're looking for something more challenging than the usual run of the mill game, look no further.

Nightworld (Alligata)

I was not addicted to this game, but if you like arcade adventures you will find it interesting and different.

The Way Of The Exploding Fist (Melbourne House)

The backdrop on the proceedings gives one a feeling that the programmer put as much effort into it as with the detail on the two characters.

Winter Olympics (Tynesoft)

The graphics are quite good, sound is used well and the Electron's clock has never been so useful.

Commando (Elite)

Commando provides the same kind of excitement I felt when I first played Elite many moons ago, and I shall go back to it time and time again.

Bug Eyes 2 (Audiogenic)

Playing Bug Eyes 2 is relaxing and enjoyable, and for my money it is one of the best games of its type to date.

Starmaze 2 (Mastertronic)

The game's ending is very weak. A congratulatory message just says "You've done it" while a dull five note tune repeats itself.

Micro Maestro Bb Instruments

These packages, which run on the BBC B and Electron, are more suited to the school music department, where may pupils could use them, rather than to the individual.

Advanced Plus 4 (ACP/Pres)

Weighing up the advantages and disadvantages of all four disc systems currently available for the Electron, I think ACP's AP4 comes out on top.

Shuffle

This is a worthwhile program, with many interesting features.
