Monsters In Hell (Softek) (Spectrum 16K)

My biggest grouse is that I just wasn't fast enough.

Gold Mine (DK'Tronics) (Spectrum 16K)

It has reasonable but not spectacular graphics.

Snake Pit (Postern) (Spectrum 16K)

A fascinating and addictive game, if you don't mind snakes.

Magic Mountain (Phipps Associates) (Spectrum 48K)

A game for those who are not too deeply into adventure gaming and would like to be broken in gently.

Firebirds (Softek) (Spectrum 16K)

The graphics animation is very good, and the game is very playable, though I didn't find it addictive.

Gobbledegook (Jupiter Cantab) (Jupiter Ace)

A relatively expensive version of this tired old game.

Spectrapede (Protek) (Spectrum 48K)

Most will find Spectrapede very good fun and many will become addicted.

Road Toad (DK'Tronics) (Spectrum 48K)

Very colourful graphics, with detailed high resolution... I particularly liked the movement of the snake.

Hopper (Rabbit) (Commodore Vic 20)

User-defined graphics are used in a most constructive fashion.

Munch Man (Astro) (Spectrum 48K)

A very good game for those who are addicted to this type of game.

Hang Glider Pilot (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

Includes a graphical display of your position on the landscape together with 'instrument' readouts of height, orientation, wind speed and direction.

Devil Craze (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

Good graphics and sound, superb presentation. Shame about the game.

Cut-Off (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

The game surround flashes along with the power squares, which makes it hard on your eyes, and although the invisible obstacles can be seen momentarily when you pass through flashing squares they aren't revealed when you crash with them.

Splodge (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

This game is unrewarding - TI-99 users deserve better!

Tickworld (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

The game is slow and it's extremely difficult to gain a foothold against overwhelming odds.

Jackpot (Mr. Chip) (Commodore Vic 20)

A beautifully-written simulation giving superb graphics, animation and use of colour.

Monte Carlo (Micromega) (Spectrum 48K)

Somehow, even though the idea is simple, unoriginal, and I'm not a gambler, the programs held my attention.

Challenge Poker (Pewterware) (Spectrum 48K)

A playable and challenging game for all TI-99/4A owners.

Mini-Roulette, Pontoon, Hi-low (Mr. Chip) (Commodore Vic 20)

A well-written if rather unexceptional collection.

Roulette (Micromega) (Spectrum 16K)

This may provide a change for people tired of blasting helpless aliens.

Monopole (Rabbit) (Commodore 64)

Will surely convert many newcomers into Monopoly addicts!

3D Quadracube (Artic) (Spectrum 16K)

A pleasant and challenging game of strategy.

Othello (Jupiter Cantab) (Jupiter Ace)

Playing for long on the small display results in eyestrain... A larger copy of the same board would be a big improvement.

Decathlon (Stainless) (TI99/4A)

The idea for the game is a good one but is sadly let down by poor presentation and the lack of user participation.
