---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | Commodore 64 | Gridrunner (Llamasoft) | Not all that original but for dedicated arcade players a fast and enjoyable game with good sound and graphics. | 64% | |
![]() | Colour Genie | Skramble (Algray) | Good graphics, sound and colour, making this an excellent game. | 79% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Sea Invasion (Romik) | An entertaining game... There are five skill levels and a choice of joystick or keyboard control, both equally effective. | 61% | |
![]() | Colour Genie | Kong (Algray) | An excellent game, making full use of the Genie's facilities and well worth buying. | 79% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Power Blaster (Romik) | Highly addictive, although very simple in concept and easy to play. | 86% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Katerpillar Attack (Microdeal) | Looks good on screen, plays well and allows the Dragon to appear in its rightful place as second to none. | 95% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Horace Goes Skiing (Sinclair Research) | Fun to play. You need a fair bit of patience to cross the road, but it is worth the effort. | 65% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | Rox (Llamasoft) | Good value for money... The boulders and missiles are slow to move, but there is an addictive quality to the game, and the colour displays between waves are excellent. | 65% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Moons Of Jupiter (Romik) | A superb game which any Asteroids addict should obtain without delay. | 91% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Adventure 4: Ultimate (Microdeal) | Adventure game addicts may find enough to keep them occupied, but for me this was not the ultimate adventure. | 76% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Rescue (CRL) | Rescue's design is too full of "chrome" - bits and pieces added for appearance - to be classed as anything close to good. | 40% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Othello (CDS) | The algorithm used is very difficult to beat.... The instructions are clear but could have been laid out in a more readable fashion. | 86% | |
![]() | Colour Genie | Fortress Of Evil (Algray) | The graphics are nothing special, and don't make the most of the Colour Genie's facilities... At £7.95, rather over-priced. | 59% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Mined Out (Microparadise Software) | Graphics are simple, colourful and perfectly adequate for this highly recommended game. | 85% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Dictator (DK Tronics) | The instructions need to be better explained, and longer. Build up secret police, but watch out for the army if it gets too strong! | 58% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | The Chess Player (Quicksilva) | The synthisised speech is impressive, and the graphics pleasant, making this a very nice game indeed. | 81% | |
![]() | Atari 400 | Ghost Hunter (Arcade Plus) | A reasonable copy of the arcade game although it misses some features and adds a lot of superfluous ones. | 66% | |
![]() | Atari 400 | Galactic Empire (Adventure International) | Very limited graphics... Particularly annoying is that each time you move your fleet, the shipboard computer prepares a report which takes up to a minute to complete. | 40% | |
![]() | Atari 400 | Preppie (Adventure International) | Altogether an excellent game... Reaching level ten is a real achievement. | 95% | |
![]() | Atari 400 | Galactic Chase (Softcell Computers) | There is now a cartridge of Galaxians available, but I would still choose this very cheap but very good copy. | 78% |
