The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #11 – Sim City

August 17, 2016 by Villordsutch

One day you’re fighting international terrorists who stole from right under your noses a high-tech, aircraft carrier – in Carrier Command – and the next you contemplating whether you should be building a residential area so close to a coal burning power station.  The worries of a ZX Spectrum gamer!  In the Your Sinclair Top 100 today […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #88 – Wheelie

June 1, 2016 by Villordsutch

After yesterday’s movie tie-in Cobra we come to a tiny piece of originality which was was clearly created on some rampant cheese eating bing by some Eddie Kidd/Evil Kenevil fan.  We’ve arrived at Number #88 and it’s called Wheelie. Published by Microsphere in 1983, the same software house behind the The Train Game which sat at Number #95, comes […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #34 – Deus Ex Machina

July 25, 2016 by Villordsutch

Waving goodbye to I, Ball 2 we look to the future, crossing our fingers and hoping that our next title in the Your Sinclair Top 100 will be something quite frankly brilliant.  Then to see that we have real life British music, film and television greats involved in our next release it can only mean […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #93 – Gyron

May 27, 2016 by Villordsutch

Villordsutch counts down Your Sinclair’s Top 100 ZX Spectrum Games… After yesterday’s excellent serving of RoboCop you’d probably be expected something equally as delicious. Well back in 1985 Gyron could have won you a Porsche 923 or £12,500 (GBP) of cash if you managed to successfully solve its puzzle.  However, that prize doesn’t mean anything if […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #8 – Rainbow Islands

August 20, 2016 by Villordsutch

As with Boulder Dash yesterday we’re rocking the extreme’s again today in the Your Sinclair Top 100, and we’ve gone from the extremely basic looking world of deep-mining to the glorious, colourful world of Rainbow Islands at No.#8 from Ocean Software. Rainbow Islands was originally an arcade release for Taito which sprung up in 1987; […]

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: #52 – Jumping Jack

July 7, 2016 by Villordsutch

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 […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #59 – Hyper Sports

June 30, 2016 by Villordsutch

Stepping backwards from the futuristic sport that was Knot in 3D to the more mundane real world sports in today’s Your Sinclair Top 100, we arrive at a coin-op conversion originally from Konami, though on the ZX Spectrum Hyper Sports was delivered from Imagine Software. Imagine Software had begun to pick up a number of arcade […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #92 – Green Beret

May 28, 2016 by Villordsutch

Villordsutch counts down Your Sinclair’s Top 100 ZX Spectrum Games… After the quite frankly bit of a let-down that was Gyron yesterday, we arrive at number #92 and instantly a smile is smacked back onto our faces – however it rapidly hits you that Green Beret really should be higher in the list than this! […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #9 – Boulder Dash

August 19, 2016 by Villordsutch

From the hi-tech to the low-tech.  We go from one extreme to the other in today’s Your Sinclair Top 100, as yesterday we were in the latest line of hypersonic jets as we played T.L.L., but today we’re given the latest in the line of pickaxes!  At No.#9 we are playing the classic Boulder Dash […]
