![]() | Sinclair ZX81 | City Patrol Plus Sabotage (Macronics Systems) | The chain-reaction effect of boxes detonating is pleasing. | 70% | |

![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Innovative Cassette 1 (Melbourne House) | The book is much better value for money than the cassettes. | 28% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Enigma (Work Force) | The biggest fault, however, was that the results of each trial with a tracer were lost, and had to be jotted down on paper or set up on the Black Box board. | 43% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Repton Infinity (Superior/Acornsoft) | The biggest case, the thickest manual, four great games with two sets of screens each and an amazing program creator that enables you to write your own Repton games in Reptol - a new arcade games writing language. | 100% | |

![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Bonzo (Audiogenic) | The author has put a lot of effort into designing the characters and giving them an endearing quality. | 81% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K/128K | Sherlock (Melbourne House) | The author couldn't make his mind up whether or not Daphne should begin with an upper or lowercase letter, and there are illogical responses to some requests. | 90% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Krazy Kong (PSS) | The animation of the man is excellent, the legs actually appear to move properly, it's even interesting just to watch him jump. | 72% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Exile (Superior/Acornsoft) | The animation is fast and incredibly realistic - I marvelled at the way Finn was bundled head over heels by a blast from the stun cannon. | 80% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Pool (CDS) | The alterations made may disappoint the pool purist, but they make for an interesting game. | 85% |
