Machine | Review Of | Quote | Score | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | BBC/Electron | Bug Eyes 2 (Audiogenic) | All in all, a very slick and additive game... Even a Sinclair C5 makes an appearance as an advanced form of transport! | 90% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Educational 1 (Golem) | Entertaining enough to keep young children's attention and well-designed enough to help them learn while enjoying themselves. | 85% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Gatecrasher (Quicksilva) | Enjoyable, simple at first but becoming much more difficult. | 75% | |
![]() | Dragon 32/64 | C-Trek (Compusense) | Enjoyable at first, but weak graphics, and poor staying-power. | 58% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Handicap Golf (CRL) | Either one or two people can take part; if two are playing, handicaps for both must be entered. | 44% | |
![]() | Sinclair ZX81 | Black Star (Quicksilva) | Effortless loading, responsive controls, nice effects, and a high-score table, but all this can't compensate for lack of excitement. | 63% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Eduquiz 1 (Gem) | Easy to use, fun and educational. | 78% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Tape Copier 4.2 (LERM) | Easy to use, and it worked every time on my own programs. | 95% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Labyrinth (Axis) | Easy to play, the game tests your memory and perception of patterns to the full. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Bouncer (A 'n F) | Easy enough... there are no extra revelations as you move through it. | 53% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Personal Banking System (Hilton Computer Services) | Each menu or display has clear instructions for input. | 80% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Land of Sagan (Mikro-Gen) | Dull and uninteresting... The graphics movement has obviously been produced by a Basic program, so slow and jerky they reminded me very much of very early ZX81 games. | 43% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Acid Drops (Firebird) | Downright boring... Shell out the extra money for something like Aardvark's Zalaga or Acornsoft's Galaxians... They will provide more fun and lasting interest. | 35% | |
![]() | Atari 400/800 | Doodlebug (Soflow) | Doodlebug does what it sets out to do, but in a bread and butter way. | 68% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Deus Ex Machina (Automata) | Don't fail to see this. This epic plot takes one hour to unfold. | 100% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Bedlam (AWA) | Doesn't resemble any other "arcade" game that I have ever seen. | 71% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K/128K | The Dragonstar Trilogy (Delta 4) | Doesn't match other adventures I've seen... I didn't feel tempted to sit for hours trying to unravel Dragonstar's secrets. | 80% | |
![]() | Acorn Electron | Elixir (Superior/Acornsoft) | Does it draw you back to play again and again? Sadly, I don't see myself returning to it again. | 70% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Simple Music Program (Stainless) | Documentation is sparse but adequate, although the program may have limited appeal due to its requirement of an expensive system. | 81% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Terrible Tales (Ladybird/Longman) | Documentation provides a fund of ideas, but it is a real pity that the program has no graphics at all. | 62% |
