Magazine Reviews (13)

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

Countdown (Commodore Vic 20)

For the nimble fingered amongst you, this is an enjoyable and maddeningly addictive game.

Survival (Commodore Vic 20)

At £1.20 a game I suppose I shouldn't expect too much, but, partly because of the build up, I did.

Forbidden Forest (Commodore 64)

The creepy music, heart-thumping sound effects and colourful animation make this a truly exciting game.

Siren City (Commodore 64)

With good use of sound and sprites and an impressively large but not so naked city, Siren City provides an enjoyable and testing romp.

Dragon Racer & Wasp Invasion (Dragon 32)

Dragon Racer's sound is good, but I would have preferred to have sound only when moving, and not all the time! As so little of the screen has been utilised, a system of dials or some other form of visual display would have added to the program.
