The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #22 – Chase H.Q.

August 6, 2016 by Villordsutch

After making the break for freedom in The Great Escape, leaving the bally Hun looking confused at little piles of dirt all around the exercise yard, we take to loading our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100.  It couldn’t get any more different as No.#22 puts us straight into a high-octane car chase […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #23 – The Great Escape

August 5, 2016 by Villordsutch

Rapidly leaving the rather humdrum Starstrike II behind, we open the box marked classics in the Your Sinclair Top 100 and hope our next game isn’t so disheartening.  Taking a glance at the cover of No.#23 I’m sure that The Great Escape – from Ocean Software – will not let us down one bit…I hope. The […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #24 – Starstrike II

August 4, 2016 by Villordsutch

After rooting around in the dirt yesterday with Manic Miner it’s time to return to the inky black in the Your Sinclair Top 100, as No.#24 is Starstrike II from Realtime Games Software Ltd. As a young lad I loved this Star Wars clone and I’m hoping it’s lasted well over the past few decades. […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #25 – Manic Miner

August 3, 2016 by Villordsutch

After the frantic, colourful space shmup that was Light Force our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100 takes us deep under our own worlds surface.  Number #25 is the classic platformer Manic Miner. Manic Miner came from the brain of Matthew Smith in 1983, published by Bug-Byte Software and then Software Projects.  It […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #26 – Light Force

August 2, 2016 by Villordsutch

Left in the dust-cloud of Super Hang-On we look for our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100 and it’s delivered to us from FTL (Faster Than Light) at No.#26 in the form of the extremely colourful Light Force. Light Force is a vertical shooter or as the kids call them today a shmup, which […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #27 – Super Hang-On

August 1, 2016 by Villordsutch

Our brains have clearly been taxed enough over the past couple of days and as Deactivators is ejected from our communal cassette deck, we pick up an adrenaline-filled serving from the Your Sinclair Top 100 and smile as we realise that No.#27 is Super Hang-On from Electronic Arts. Super Hang-On was originally released by SEGA as […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #28 – Deactivators

July 31, 2016 by Villordsutch

Forcing the old grey matter to actually do some work seems to be on the cards again, as we wave goodbye to Think! and greet our next title in the Your Sinclair Top 100. Deactivators which sits at No. #28 however this isn’t a flat 2D board game – here we’re in the pseudo-3D realm of bomb […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #29 – Think!

July 30, 2016 by Villordsutch

With the graphical wizardry of Nebulus from Hewson served to us in our last instalment, you’d now expect our bar to be set pretty high in the Your Sinclair Top 100, so when what looks like a square version of Connect 4 strolls up at No.#29 – calling itself Think! – we’re instantly sneering at it […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #30 – Nebulus

July 29, 2016 by Villordsutch

Resetting our ZX Spectrum, we remove from memory Lunar Jetman, looking towards our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100 and again it’s another from the Hewson Consultants Ltd.  Number #30 was a game that made both critics and gamers really stop and look, as Nebulus had a certain unique feature. Nebulus was programmed by John […]
