Acorn Electron | Exile (Superior/Acornsoft) | Finn meets up with friendly as well as fiendish characters and, although the game is truly awesome in its proportions, it cleverly restricts you to certain areas at the outset so that you can get the 'feel' of how to play it without being overawed. | 94% | ||
