For our money the Winter Games conversion just has the edge on presentation and playability - despite the naff skating bits. Winter Sports comes a close second, however, because it features straight ski-ing games. Read Review
The graphics are excellent and comparable to those on the C64 without losing any of the gameplay. Read Review
A great package... Some of the games are really fast - you need to be really quick with your reflexes. Read Review
A Spectrum classic that any self-respecting collector should have it on his or her shelf in one form or another. Read Review
A piste de resistance of graphic style and aural wit. This new 128K version adds sound and it goes in all in one load. Read Review

If you must have yet another excuse for not going out and getting some real exercise, then this is probably the one, mainly due to its graphics and music. Read Review
