---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | Spectrum 16K/48K | Shark Attack (Romik) | Try throwing yourself on the sharks... the graphics and sound effects for a 'kill' are quite good! | 63% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Elixir (Superior/Acornsoft) | Try it out... it grows on you faster than Repton's fungus. | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Ghost Rider (Positive Image) | Try before you buy. Frustration becomes boredom after three hours of starting again. | 73% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Evening Star (Hewson Consultants) | Try and track this game down - I think you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I was by the sophistication of the package. | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K/48K | Supercode 2 (CP) | Truly professional effects on tap at a modest cost... Highly recommended. | 100% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Morocco Grand Prix (Microdeal) | Too slow for my tastes, even though it is in machine code, and provides no real challenge. | 51% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Tradewind (WD Software) | Too much reliance on luck... The novelty of it soon wears off. | 60% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Mister Mac's Day (Arrow) | To understand the digital watch, the child keys in the correct time - pity there is no facility to go backwards. | 94% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Nightcrawler (Rabbit) | To reach the highest level was beyond me, although I tried for hours... A challenge worth taking up. | 78% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | Attack Of The Mutant Camels (Llamasoft) | To play it is to appreciate it... The only criticism could be that it is perhaps a little too difficult! | 81% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Geography (Cable) | To call this package "Geography" is like calling Genesis "The Bible"... It's by no means worthy of the name. | 59% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Gunsmoke (Software Invasion) | To be frank, the game is boring once the basics have been grasped. | 55% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Arena/Alien Swarm (K-Tel) | To be fair, this is a good game concept... In the hands of Ultimate, Imagine or Psion it could have been superb. | 60% | |
![]() | Archimedes A3000 | Thundermonk (Minerva) | Thundermonk is interesting and fairly enjoyable. | 80% | |
![]() | Archimedes A3000 | Thundermonk (Minerva) | Thundermonk is highly playable and strongly recommended if you like this kind of thing. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Thrust (Superior) | Thrust is a classic game, a game at which the natural games player will excel. | 100% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Action Pack 2 (Alligata) | Three of the games would make excellent singles, so it is a real bargain to get all of them at such a low price. | 90% | |
![]() | Atari 400/800 | Escape From Perilous (English) | Three levels... An idea that needs developing considerably before it will provide a good game. | 33% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Laser Tank (Stainless) | Three levels of difficulty... Keyboard or joystick, the former being the more formidable as it allows left and right tracks to be steered separately. | 76% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Play It Again Sam 14 (Superior/Acornsoft) | Three full-price best sellers and an all-new arcade adventure constitute one of their best compilations so far. | 90% |
