---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | BBC Model B | Battle Planet (Interactive Software People) | Perhaps BBC owners are spoilt but I now expect more colour, excitement and better graphic definition from arcade games than this. | 45% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Enigma (Brainbox) | Should you be the type of mental masochist who can solve Rubik's cube blindfold with both hands tied then this is the game for you. | 61% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | Forbidden Forest (Audiogenic) | As time continues, the moon rises and falls, screen colours change and stars come out. This is a nice touch which gives the game variety. | 80% | |
![]() | Sord M5 | Wheels (CGL) | Too simple and offers you no challenge... I cannot recommend it at all. | 28% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Sea Adventure (Virgin Games) | After completing the adventure, I can say that it isn't very spectacular, but I did enjoy the welcome home. | 73% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Galactic Encounter/Checkers (Stainless) | Clever graphics... Checkers is a variation of the old strategy game of Solitaire, except that the layout used is an 8 x 8 grid, with the centremost sixteen squares left blank. | 86% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Pengon (Microdeal) | The graphics are acceptable, but I was disappointed to find that Pengon does not look much like a penguin. | 74% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Electron (Tom Mix) | Not very impressive graphics or games... Extra lives are awarded if you reach certain scores. | 39% | |
![]() | Sord M5 | Lander/Squash/Raiders (CGL) | Very low quality and cannot be recommended. | 45% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Spy's Demise (Stainless) | In the newer version, the game is easier and, because there is less frustration, the enjoyment is greater. | 91% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Crash-Up Car Racing (Stainless) | Definitely not value for money. | 50% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Tukom's Kingdom (Stainless) | There is a bug in this game: the monster sometimes moves over the spell, clearing it from the screen! | 78% | |
![]() | Sord M5 | Bombard (CGL) | It is sad that you must fork out £5.95 for a rather simple, pure Basic game of this quality. | 55% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Cu*Ber (Tom Mix) | An entertaining and amusing game... Three levels of play... At the start you are shown graphically what to avoid and what is beneficial. | 78% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Mission XK1 (J. Morrison Micros) | Docking is difficult by the small area you have to aim for... I found this detracted from the game's appeal. | 68% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K/128K | Castle Blackstar (SCR Adventures) | Castle Blackstar uses almost all available memory to provide maximum play potential and should offer long-term interest. | 92% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K/128K | Dragonsbane (Quicksilva) | Closer attention to the finer details of dialogue and careful program structure, to achieve faster responses, would lift this program from the ordinary to the gripping. | 73% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Draw 15 (Fowler) | Although you get a lot for your money, the results aren't very impressive... The POKE to the screen routine is slow and jerky. | 69% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Sort Animator (OIC) | A picture paints a thousand words... a graphical demonstration beats a dozen books. | 88% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | My Secret File (Mosaic) | All good database stuff... The secrecy of storage on tape, with password and security code, is far better than writing down secrets in a book. | 75% |
