---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Line Up 4 Plus Reversi (Terminal) | If the programmer produces a better version of Reversi, then both games on one tape would represent better value for money. | 71% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Round Ones (Alternative) | If only there were more budget games like this! | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K/128K | ZX Toolkit (Star Dreams) | If only the trace slowed the program even more, the loading title used colours I could read when listing, and the well-written instructions were on something more durable. | 70% | |
![]() | Newbrain | Personal Income Tax (Grundy) | If money is limited, then the Which? algorithms would be a better buy; at the end of the day you'd be more likely to have understood what you have submitted to your local tax office or financial adviser. | 47% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Puzzler (Shards) | If mental geometry is your thing, then this might be for you - otherwise, buy a jigsaw. | 63% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Zenon (Impact) | If Impact can produce more games at the same price with the same excellent quality graphics as Zenon, but with more to them than just zapping aliens, the result might be nice little earners. | 80% | |
![]() | Atari 400/800/600XL/800XL/130XE | Colossal Adventure (Level 9 Computing) | If adventures are your game, then this is your adventure - at an incredible price! | 97% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Fortress (Pace Ltd) | If you enjoy playing the two-dimensional fly-fast and shoot-quick games the two-dimensional fly-fast and shoot-quick games then Fortress is the next step up. | 85% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Hide And Seek (Acornsoft/ASK) | I would suggest you use command *FX210,1 before loading, as this will stop the constant sound effects from driving you mad. | 95% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | Kick Off (Bubble Bus) | I would rather put the money towards an original table top football game. | 53% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Munch Man (Texas Instruments) | I would only recommend this game to the dedicated Pacman addict with lots of spare money to fling around. | 61% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | The Ring Of Power (Quicksilva) | I would not advise any adventuring experts to buy it - they would find it too easy. No instructions. | 29% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Tank Attack (CDS) | I would have preferred to see the whole game played on the micro rather than half on the micro and half on the board. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Caveman Adventure (Micro Power) | I would have preferred not to have been forced into an endgame situation as quickly, and as often, as I was at first. | 62% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Yahtzi (Work Force) | I would have liked to have seen a longer delay for the print on screen. | 73% | |
BBC/Electron | Sunday (Dave E) | I would give this 8/10. Graphics are a straight 10, with playability hot on their heels. | 90% | ||
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Early Punctuation (Sinclair Research) | I wonder if parents or teachers will really want to spend time putting in different sentences, when writing them on to paper or a blackboard is so much simpler. | 84% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Vectors Maths Tutor (Salamander) | I wish that this kind of tape had been available when I was taking my exams at school; it would have made revision at home a much more relevant experience. | 85% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Timequest (Mikro-Gen) | I wish I could find something nice to say about this program. | 11% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Thunderstruck 2 (Audiogenic) | I wholeheartedly recommend this one. | 70% |
