---|---|---|---|---|---|
BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Super Dump (Silicon Vision) | A marvellous piece of software. At last you can produce graphics printouts which genuinely look like their screen equivalents. | 90% | ||
BBC/Electron | ViewSheet And ViewStore: A Dabhand Guide (Dabs Press) | Simultaneously a beginner's primer and an expert's textbook, this book is probably all you'll ever need on your bookshelves. | 90% | ||
BBC B/B+/Master 128/Master Compact | System Gamma (Minerva Systems) | A powerful all-purpose data presentation package which will prove well worth the price to anyone struggling with the Beeb for business. The lack of inclusion of a real programmer's manual is a grave omission though. | 70% | ||
BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Quest Mouse (Watford Electronics) | The home-user's graphics software has come of age. | 80% | ||
BBC/Electron | Spellbinder (Superior/Acornsoft) | I do not feel that this game is really up to Superior's usual high standard. Having said that, it kept me amused for some time, and I would recommend it to any adventure game enthusiast. | 63% | ||
BBC/Electron | Spitfire '40 (Mirrorsoft) | Providing that you have some joysticks, I would thoroughly recommend Spitfire '40 as a stocking filler this Christmas. | 81% | ||
BBC B/B+/Master 128 | The Life Of Repton (Superior/Acornsoft) | If you have not yet played any of the Repton games but feel tempted, then this is by far the best Repton game to buy. | 91% | ||
BBC Model B | The Living Daylights (Domark) | Looking for a good game? Look elsewhere. | 34% | ||
BBC/Electron | The New Advanced User Guide (Acornsoft/Adder) | This new book will take its place on my bookshelf and continue to be my main source of reference whenever I am urgently seeking that vital piece of information about the software or hardware of my machine. | 98% | ||
BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Motion In Space (Cambridge Micro) | Does a useful, simple job appealingly and well. There may be no sound, but you do get good smooth graphics, and simple and clear ideas for teaching well, tied to the underlying scientific principles. | 90% | ||
BBC Model B | Bel Genealogy (Bel Tech) | The ideal package for anyone who spends his/her leisure hours in the pursuit of family or local history. | 85% | ||
BBC/Electron | Advanced Disc Investigator (ACP/Pres) | ADI is a powerful package. There is little you'd want to do to a disc that this software can't help with. For serious disc users, this is a must. | 89% | ||
BBC B/B+/Master 128 | Advanced Sideways RAM User Guide (Victory Press) | Once you get over the unpolished style of this book, it makes for fascinating and challenging reading. | 84% | ||
BBC Model B | The Graphic Adventure Creator (Incentive) | If your aim is to create fairly simple and colourful games then the Graphic Adventure Creator cannot be beaten. | 76% | ||
BBC Model B | ViewSpell (Acornsoft) | A worthy addition to the View family, if rather late in the day. It includes a truly massive master dictionary... but it's less satisfactory when correcting mis-spellings and building up your own user dictionaries. | 88% | ||
BBC Model B | Graphito (Addison-Wesley) | Graphito is more of a tool than an end in itself. The programs can be incorporated in your own work, but the long manual may well appear quite daunting to many would-be graphic artists. | 82% | ||
BBC Model B | Skyhawk (Pace Ltd) | The action is smooth and fast as well and this game should provide a good challenge to any budding chopper pilot. | 76% | ||
BBC Model B | Spooky Manor (Acornsoft) | I think a family could have fun with this program although it might soon lose its attraction once the objective has been achieved. | 72% | ||
BBC Model B | Tesselator (Addison-Wesley) | Does for the would-be tessellator what Wordwise does for the writer. The manual is good, and the program sufficiently robust in fact for one to start before a thorough reading. However, it is still possible to be inadvertently taken back into Basic with a loss of current data. | 85% | ||
BBC Model B | The Penman Plotter (Penman Products) | The quality of manufacture, the varied functions and the highly original design approach make this a very useful device indeed. | 81% |
