---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() | Commodore 64 | Kaktus (Supersoft) | C64 owners should enjoy this game for its graphics and originality, but bear in mind it is fairly expensive. | 71% | |
![]() | Atari 400 | Firefleet (English) | By skillfully positioning the cruiser above obstacles, the player can blast them sky-high with two on-board laser cannons. | 78% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Cruncher (Virgin Games) | By no means bad, but it isn't up to the standard of Program Power's Danger UXB by any means. | 68% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Money (Stell) | Buy this program if you have no idea how to teach your child and need some help - but do the teaching with the real thing, and lots of discussion. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Play It Again Sam 7 (Superior/Acornsoft) | Buy the compilation and play it. Now. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC Master Compact | Colossus Chess 4 (CDS) | Buy it now - this is a game that will outlive your BBC. | 80% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Summer Olympiad (Tynesoft) | Buy it if you love sports simulations. | 70% | |
![]() | BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Holed Out (The 4th Dimension) | Buy it - it will keep you entertained for hours and hours. | 90% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Beyond Basic (Sinclair Research) | But, if you have already ploughed through the books and are now searching for the 'missing link' between understanding assembler code and its application, then this program will add nothing to your knowledge. | 84% | |
BBC Model B | Bun Fun (Squirrel) | Bun Fun seems a little rough around the edges. It isn't addictive enough for me to play it again anytime soon. | 4% | ||
![]() | BBC/Electron | Bullseye (Macsen) | Bullseye is quite fun to play if a little slow at times. | 60% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Diamond Quest (Cases Computer Simulations) | Bugs and loading difficulties aside, this adventure is written on an insultingly low level. | 50% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Plan B (Bug Byte) | Bug Byte has given us some very good games for the Electron in the past but this one is a real blockbuster. | 100% | |
![]() | BBC/Electron | Roboto (Bug Byte) | Budget games should be lively and playable; this one is certainly both of those. | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Spectune (XORsoft) | Budding composers can write music, hear it, save it, edit it, alter it, merge two tunes and print hard copy. Try it! | 85% | |
![]() | Atari ST | Parasol Stars (Ocean) | Brilliant... Beautifully-drawn, animated nasties follow you around smoothly... Never a hint of poor collision detection or sub-standard movement routines. | 91% | |
![]() | BBC Model B | Hubert (Visions) | Bounce around the pyramid time again... It has the expected high-score tables, pause, mute and keyboard or joystick options but there's nothing to make it outstanding. | 76% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Telling The Time/Money (Poppy Programs) | Both programs have value... but for much less, you could buy a set of imitation coins and a clock face! | 70% | |
![]() | Spectrum 48K | Capital Letters (Sinclair Research) | Both primary and remedial children would enjoy this way to learn and reinforce knowledge. | 84% | |
![]() | Spectrum 16K | Cruising On Broadway (Solar Soft) | Both good entertainment and good value. | 40% |
