Computer & Video Games

1st December 1986

A game for keyboard experts and people willing to spend a lot of time getting nowhere fast. I'm not one of them, I'm afraid. Read Review

Crash

1st November 1986

This was an extremely playable game on other machines. The Spectrum version is, to me, just as good. Read Review

Sinclair User

5th October 1986

Simple graphics but don't let that mislead you. This is a game for serious arcaders. It's budget brilliance - don't miss it. Read Review

Your Sinclair

An old fashioned game... It's not going to set the world alight, but it's been well enough thought out to be challenging and fun. Read Review
