The Addams Family (Ocean)

One of the most spectacularly colourful and playable games I've ever seen on the Spectrum.

Titanic Blinky (Zeppelin Games)

Um, idling around the biggest failure in the history of shipping, shooting some very odd looking creatures and collecting tons of tokens. That's it! But I have this weird tingling feeling that some of you will like it.

Potsworth And Co. (Hi-Tec)

A playable, funny title, and certainly one which brain-use-fans would do well to try out.

Murray Mouse In Mouse Mania (Codemasters)

A fine, playable game that's worth a look.

Robocop 3 (Ocean)

Robocop 3 brings the game's difficulty rating back up to the level of the original Robocop but, although it has lots of new enemies, it's still very much the same old story re-hashed over again.

Hit Pack Number One (Zeppelin)

What can I say, I would only get this pack if I hadn't already got Kenny Dalglish? The other games, apart from Mountain Bike don't have much to offer.

Soccer Pinball (Codemasters)

Get your fingers pumping, your brain whirling, your toes tapping and your nose a-picking! Yes, it is a strange idea but it works and that's what counts.

Grell And Falla (Codemasters)

A horizontally scrolling single player platform/combat game.

American 3D Pool (Zeppelin)

Jimmy's Super League (Beyond Belief)

Q10 Tankbuster (Zeppelin Games)

If you're a shoot-'em-up addict then Q10 might just quench your appetite for a few hours. Be warned though, it does get frustrating.

Biff (Beyond Belief)

I liked this game, it's colourful and reasonably detailed and there are enough puzzles to keep most players happy for quite a while.

Match Of The Day (Zeppelin)

Multimixx 5 (Kixx)

A fond look back in time to the days when the Speccy ruled supreme.

Rick Dangerous (Kixx)

Looks smart and plays brilliantly, with more than enough game in there to last you until the next Indy film is released.

Midnight Resistance (The Hit Squad)

When first released, we thought this was absolutely incredible. It's still looking practically as good as it always has done.

Action Fighter (Kixx)

This game works rather well on Spectrum. Playability is as smooth as a baby's bum but substantial difficulty makes playing the game rather like walking a tight rope.

Navy Moves (The Hit Squad)

Looks very nice but it's just too difficult. You'll be killed time and time again for no reason other than frustrating gameplay and, after a while, it all becomes too much.

Airborne Ranger (Kixx)

The elements of strategy and stealth make the game a lot more involving than most, and the clear, detailed graphics do justice to the gameplay.

Turrican 2 (Kixx)

The controls are a little slow (especially for fire), but as the emphasis is more on the platform part of the game anyway this doesn't really ruin things.

Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge (GBH)

This is one hell of a racing game. It's got lots levels with big increases in difficulty and your Lotus doesn't seem to mind bashing around on track side obstacles - within reason.
