The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #61 – Eric and the Floaters

June 28, 2016 by Villordsutch

We leave the orb stealing, gravity pulling, highly enjoyable but Thrust-rating (hope you caught that?) space adventure and we turn to quite possibly the strangest titled game in the Your Sinclair Top 100, one that in some parts of the UK is really lost in translation.  We’ve arrived at No. #61 and in bobs Eric […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #62 – Thrust

June 27, 2016 by Villordsutch

If you’ve managed to stay awake after yesterday’s sleep inducing Computer Scrabble then you’re in for a rather splendid treat today, as landing at number #62 in the Your Sinclair Top 100 is the rather excellent Thrust. Thrust (originally written by  late Jeremy Smith for the BBC Micro) clearly wore its love for the Atari game Gravitar on […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #63 – Computer Scrabble

June 26, 2016 by Villordsutch

Video Game Review – Deep Core Raider on the ZX Spectrum

June 24, 2016 by Villordsutch

Villordsutch reviews Deep Core Raider on the ZX Spectrum… One of my favourite all time computer games of old was Thrust created by the late Jeremy Smith. I spent many a wet break time at school on a massive BBC Micro battling both inertia and gravity to steal the orbs from numerous caves.  So when I caught […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #65 – Batty

June 24, 2016 by Villordsutch

June 22, 2016 by Villordsutch
