![]() | Spectrum 48K | Laser Zone (Quicksilva) | Altogether a disappointing experience. | 73% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | 3D Star Wars (Custom Cables International Ltd) | Instructions are in the program but appear on screen rather ponderously due to a rather involved teleprint-style format. | 90% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Zaxxan (Starzone) | An original angle on an old favourite. | 84% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | The Snowman (Quicksilva) | Anyone under 110 will enjoy this delightful game. | 100% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Pi-Balled (Automata) | The program is compatible with the Kempston joystick and introduces the characters on the two loading screens. | 97% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Abyss (Cases Computer Simulations) | An original game well worth an investment... At times, one has to be a super-fast reader to read the instructions and complete your task. | 83% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Spectrum Safari (CDS) | One of the few programs that might exercise your intellect and still be fun! | 84% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Corn Cropper (Cases Computer Simulations) | The perplexing point is how to lay off temporary workers hired for harvesting. Their wages are so high they must belong to a very good union. | 95% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Viking (Dragon Data) | A rather enjoyable and unusual game. The instructions are given in a booklet and the cassette comes nicely packaged in a video-type box. | 70% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Dallas (Cases Computer Simulations) | If you can survive the tornado, sabotage, earthquakes, etc, you'll be able to take over J.R.'s empire. | 94% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Airline (Cases Computer Simulations) | A thoroughly enjoyable game. | 97% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Sliding Block Puzzle (Ega Beva) | A good educational game, but annoyingly the level of difficulty can be altered only be re-loading the picture. | 79% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Scan (Paen Systems) | Likely to give much longer use than the average arcade game. | 88% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Intergalactic Trader (Micro Power) | The screens could have been more colourful and better presented (all Mode 7). Some graphics would have been nice too. | 74% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Wizard's Challenge (Micro Power) | Suits a modestly experienced adventurer who had had good experience of schools and knows how some of the usual adventure conventions work. | 56% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Star Trader (First Byte) | An acceptable idea, but fails to exploit the graphic potential of the BBC. | 71% | |
![]() | Commodore 64/128 | Scope 64 (Interactive Software People) | An interesting utility, and one that's well worth looking at if you don't want to bother learning machine code. | 78% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Key Definer And Character Generator (G.SOFT) | This is so bad that I imagine it would probably have been rejected had it been submitted for publication in a magazine. | 33% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | The Character Generator (Interactive Software People) | Unworthy of the publishers of Scope - and at a ridiculous price. | 57% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Quickdraw (Selective) | Do consider this program if a general purpose artistic package is what you require. | 63% |
