Golf (Salamander) (Dragon 32)

You can play by yourself or with one other player to the standard Stableford points system used for competition golf. The cassette is nicely packaged too.

Skramble (Rabbit) (Commodore Vic 20)

If you own a joystick, use it for faster play.

Arcadia (Imagine) (Spectrum 16K)

The true test of a game like this is the "just one more go" syndrome; with Arcadia, you will find yourself suffering from just that.

Cylon Attack (A 'n F) (Acorn Atom)

Two keys control up and down movement and another two are for right and left, making it a little difficult to fire with the space bar.

Penetrator (Melbourne House) (Spectrum 48K)

The controls take time to become accustomed to.

Arcade Action (Apex Trading) (Dragon 32)

Just another fairly standard version of the classic game.

Another Vic In The Wall (Bug-Byte) (Commodore Vic 20)

More instructions would be a distinct improvement.

Shark Attack (Romik) (Commodore Vic 20)

Joystick or keyboard operation... Using the joystick is best.

Vic Panic (Bug-Byte) (Commodore Vic 20)

Choice of keyboard or joystick operation... Use a joystick if you have one.

Nightcrawler (Rabbit) (Commodore Vic 20)

To reach the highest level was beyond me, although I tried for hours... A challenge worth taking up.

Backgammon (Bug-Byte) (Commodore Vic 20)

Compulsive to play, this will keep you engrossed for a long time, even if you've never before played the board game.

Mastermind (Commodore) (Commodore Vic 20)

An all-round winner.

Siege (Postern) (Commodore Vic 20)

At £6.99 this game is very good value from one of the lesser-known software houses.

Kosmic Kamikase (Audiogenic) (Commodore Vic 20)

For all Space Invaders addicts who are looking for a little extra, without spoiling the fun.
