Magazine Reviews (18)

Linked reviews are available to view in full on this site.

Oric Flight (Oric 48K)

Excellent use is made of the Oric's graphics and sound and, on the whole, the game is great - which is to say, addictive.

Motor Mania (Commodore 64)

A first-class arcade game of absorbing interest, and requiring considerable skill to succeed.

Embassy Assault (Spectrum 16K)

This may be ICL's idea of an entertaining game, but I'm afraid it isn't mine.

Tobor (Spectrum 48K)

Tobor is just too predictable for my tastes - the robots don't even take up random positions in the maze, but trundle to the same spot every time.

Music Maker (Spectrum 48K)

Entertaining and instructive... A good program that is well worth a listen. There is no provision to produce chords, because the Spectrum doesn't have a three-channel sound chip.

BBC Music Synthesiser (BBC Model B)

Good use is made of the excellent sound capabilities of the BBC, and overall it's a good program which should provide endless hours of entertainment.

The Working Dragon 32 (Dragon 32)

A good book, but you'd be well advised to learn Basic programming first.

Dynamic Games For Your Dragon 32 (Dragon 32)

If you're looking for a cheap way to get lots of games - and you don't mind typing in long listings - then this is a book for you. Apart from that, it has little instructional value.
