The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #48 – Renegade

by

After the peace and quiet has passed with a few rounds of Tetris, it’s only right our attention returns to some real action.  What better way to do this that with smacking somebody in the teeth, then following this up with high-kick, knocking them straight off the edge off a train station!  Obviously we’re not advocating this […]

After the adrenaline, wheelie filled world of Enduro Racer we need a come down, and what better game to take with us to our quiet corner than the one resting at Number #49 in the Your Sinclair Top 100, which is Alexey Pajitnov’s classic Tetris.

by

From one highly addictive classic to another, we attempt to tear ourselves away from Jumping Jack and load up No. 51 in the Your Sinclair Top 100.  Robotron will have you swearing so loudly your surrounding neighbours will be picking up a few new colourful words today.

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #52 – Jumping Jack

by

Leaving the Ping Pong paddles on Imagine’s virtual table and walking off towards the next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100, we arrive at number 52 which is Jumping Jack.  On first glance you’ll probably balk at it on graphics alone – for this is an amazingly basic looking game – but after a […]
