Badlands (The Hit Squad)

The relatively boring accelerating and braking necessity of Badlands is almost like buying a BMX in order to ride it sensibly along the road.

Race - Pack 4 (Zeppelin Games)

Deathchase and Full Throttle are old "just-when-the-Speccy-came-out" full pricers, and today may look dated, but are still probably worth seeing all the same.

S.T.U.N. Runner (The Hit Squad)

Simplicity at its best and, I'm afraid, a coin-op conversion at its worst.

Sword Of The Samurai (Zeppelin Games)

Despite some drawbacks, The Sword Of The Samurai is still perfectly adequate in every department and it's a fun game to play.

The Tears Of The Moon (Zenobi)

This adventure seems to have been constructed from several different ideas - none of them really sitting comfortably with one another.

Popeye 3 (Alternative)

It's got smart graphics, some fine funny bits and some tough (and silly) opponents. But it's not a patch on Tag Team Wrestling and, after Popeye and Popeye 2, a great disappointment.
