Magic Mushrooms (Acornsoft)

An excellent game, and with the flexibility of do-it-yourself screens it should outlive every ladders-and-levels game on the market.

Alien 8 (Ultimate)

Alien 8 is a must for the collection... It is light years ahead of most BBC Micro games software.

Additional Fun (Shiva)

Programs of this standard can be unqualifyingly recommended for any primary school use or home user.

Atic Atac (Ultimate)

Atic Atac is fast, furious, and fun.

Bank (Diamant)

Bank is not especially ingenious or revolutionary, but if it were tidied up, and if the documentation looked less "home-made", it would not be out of place in a good software library.

Shanghai (Software Express)

Shanghai will take time to complete and, if you are patient and enjoy levels games, of which this is an an above-average example, this is one for you.

Bobby Charlton Soccer (Dacc Ltd)

I played it whenever I had a spare half-hour and I was soon able to beat the computer and any unsuspecting friends that called in.

Playbox (Comsoft)

I would spend my money on this if it had only two of the three games - the third is the icing on the cake!

Chicane (Kempston)

Unfortunately this game has been released at the same time as Revs, which, despite being twice the price with only one track, is immeasurably superior in almost every respect.

Repton (Superior)

Repton is a colourful green-headed character and is beautifully animated.

Talkback (Acornsoft)

By running their conversations and joining in with them, the techniques and potential of the program can be more easily seen.

Maths With A Story 1 (BBC Soft)

The unusual and attractive sound and graphics used in all the programs hold your interest and this, plus an excellent user manual and screen instructions, adds up to one of the best educational packages I have seen.

ABC (Acornsoft)

Contains as many features as you need, and is remarkable value.
