---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Kamakazi (A 'n F) | Compares favourably with any game you would find in an amusement arcade. | 84% | |
![]() | Dragon 32/64 | Blaster, Smuggler's Cave, Hangman (Alton) | Compared with other compilations, this one seems to me overpriced for games which aren't particularly novel. | 68% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Commonwealth Games (Tynesoft) | Commonwealth Games is a fine example of an athletics program, but could have been even better with a little more forethought. | 90% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Hidden City (Bytewell) | Colour and sound are well used but not spectacular. | 78% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Shark (Audiogenic) | Colonel Shark will certainly win his share of devotees, especially among those seeking a hero to inherit the mantle of Commander Stryker. | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Cloneit And Renumber (Argus Press) | Cloneit is a tape back-up system... Renumber is a fast line renumbering utility... Both work. | 83% | |
![]() | Sinclair ZX81 | The Trader Trilogy (Pixel) | Cleverly devised, nicely presented, and if you're feeling indulgent, well worth considering. | 85% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Clever Clogs: Music (Computer Tutor) | Clever Clogs smiles or grimaces, correct answers are shown and the tune plays at the end. | 88% | |
![]() | Dragon 32 | Number Puzzler (Dragon Data) | Clear layout and good graphics. | 74% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Vic Panic (Bug Byte) | Choice of keyboard or joystick operation... Use a joystick if you have one. | 75% | |
![]() | Commodore 64 | Doodle (Quicksilva) | Cheaper than most of the opposition... Represents excellent value for money. | 95% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Chariot Race (Micro Antics) | Chariot Race requires intense concentration, and two players can enjoy the game at the same time. | 50% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Bumble Bee (Micro Power) | Changes of direction are tricky... There is a joystick option which makes it slightly easier. | 86% | |
![]() | Commodore Vic 20 | Chocabloc (Paramount) | Certainly worth a look if you like a frantic game. | 79% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Starship Command (Acornsoft) | Certainly offers a challenge but frustrating in places, especially when running for my life and avoiding the enemies' missiles, only to have some incompetent starship captain run straight into me. | 75% | |
![]() | Colour Genie | Martian Rescue (Ipswich Software Factory) | Certainly not a good representation of its arcade version. | 27% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Space Mission Simulator (Compusoft) | Certainly a buy for your spending money. | 78% | |
![]() | TI99/4A | Video Chess (Texas Instruments) | Castleing, pawn promotion and en passant are all supported. | 86% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Video Card Arcade (Blue Ribbon) | Card games seem notoriously difficult to code in an interesting way, but this represents good value for a budget label and will keep you amused. | 60% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Physics - Optics (Camel Micros) | Calculations teaches 1/V + 1/U + 1/F and V/U + I/S and sets examples to ensure they are understood - unfortunately another bug has appeared: 3th set? | 66% |
