Chase HQ (Ocean)

A playable conversion that should please followers of the original.

The Seven Gates Of Jambala (Grandslam)

If you enjoy games such as Wonderboy and Mario Bros, then you'll probably get an enormous amount of fun from Jambala, but even if you're not familiar with these games, it's still worth investigating.

P-47 Thunderbolt (Firebird)

A simple shoot-'em-up that's enjoyable but lacking the lasting interest required of a classic blast.

Twin World (Ubisoft)

Ghostbusters II (Activision)

Stunning visuals, snore inducing plot. There's much potential in a licence such as this, and the programmers have worked hard to try and better the last Ghostbusters game. Sadly, playability is, if anything, even worse.

Iron Lord (Ubi Soft)

A game bulging with interest. With three very different and long-lasting levels, you'll be well impressed.

The Untouchables (Ocean)

Very addictive. The unusual control methods which see you rolling along the floor, hiding behind walls and leaping in front of a pram are a lot of fun to play and, with great graphics as well.

Beach Volley (Ocean)

This is the best representation of volleyball seen on a computer so far. And it's good fun as a two player game. But when your friends have gone home, you soon get fed up of thumping the ball back and forth.

Time (Empire)

Great fun, particularly for someone who doesn't enjoy spending hours lost in a section of game which is no use to you whatsoever. It does, though, make Time less exciting for the adventure enthusiast who knows the ins and outs of every adventure ever released.

North And South (Infogrames)

The action sequences keep this game alive and the plot requires you to give some thought to where you move. However, the map is too small and the possibilities too tedious to make it worth the effort.

Kenny Dalglish Soccer Match (Impressions Ltd)

The graphics are poor, sound is weak, and it lacks all the necessary ingredients for exciting gameplay. Even the glorious leadership of Kenny can't save the day!

Warp (Grandslam)

The scrolling is incredibly, breathtakingly smooth, but without the necessary gameplay this offering will soon be gathering dust at the bottom of your toy-box.

Starwrek (Castlesoft)

Star Wrek is destined to go where no Star Trek game has gone before - straight into obscurity. My copy of the game made a satisfying clunk as it struck the dustbin.
