Andrew Newton revisits a selection of romance-themed retro games from back in the day… It’s St. Valentine’s Day, a chance to spend time with your beloved…… beloved retro computer that is. There are a fair few games of old that had love and romance as the focus, and I’m talking proper love not smut, I’ll […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #96 – Cruising on Broadway
Villordsutch counts down Your Sinclair’s Top 100 ZX Spectrum Games… Continuing with the countdown we arrive at No. 96 and with this we hit Cruising on Broadway from Solarsoft, released way back in 1983. With the box art and title – seen above – you’d probably be expecting something flash and filled to the back […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #90 – Bounder
Villordsutch counts down Your Sinclair’s Top 100 ZX Spectrum Games… From Avalon yesterday we bounce towards the life of a sentient tennis ball with the first Gremlin Graphics game (and it certainly won’t be the last) to grace our countdown, as Bounder arrives to truly shatter our nerves. Gremlin Graphics was the software house that delivered numerous titles […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #77 – Gyroscope
After the two rather excellent games of Flying Shark and Atic Atac we descend rapidly towards Number #77 in the Your Sinclair Top 100 and scream towards the arcade-puzzle game Gyroscope from Melbourne House. Our second game from Melbourne House in the chart so far (the first being Sir Lancelot just last week), Gyroscope spun into existence back in […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #56 – Bounty Bob Strikes Back
As we leave the truly immersive Celtic folklore world of Dun Darach we stumble and repeatedly fall into our next helping in the Your Sinclair Top 100. Delivered to us at No.#56 in what seems a rather hurried heap is Bounty Bob Strikes Back and you may need a hat to hide the patches of […]
Video Game Review – Deep Core Raider on the ZX Spectrum
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
From the addictive maze of Splat!, we turn to one of the Elite’s greatest titles that in truth never actually received a true official release, but first appeared as the free covertape game for Your Sinclair back in 1987. Batty has finally arrived in the Top 100 countdown, and it is one of this reviewers most favourite games […]
Video Game Review – Double Bubble on ZX Spectrum
Villordsutch reviews Double Bubble… In the latest Homebrew Review on the ZX Spectrum I look at a simple looking arcade puzzle game that involves you guiding two bubbles across a small obstacle course. I say simply, Double Bubble is a game that will have you cursing your machine in a matter of minutes as the secondary bubble […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #70 – G-Force
We leave the Pleasuredome from Frankie Goes To Hollywood, setting our sights on Number #70 in the Your Sinclair Top 100 games and it’s rather a bizarre little number called G-Force; rather disappointingly it’s not the kids cartoon from the early 1980’s. G-Force arrived in 1983 from EMM Software, created by Boris Baginski (BB Design). […]
Video Game Review – Invasive Species on ZX Spectrum
Villordsutch reviews Invasive Species on ZX Spectrum… In today’s Homebrew Reviews on the ZX Spectrum you become one of the most vile creatures on the planet – a summer destroying wasp – as you attempt to keep the garden in which you live clean of all things not you. Loading Invasive Species from Sludge and with the […]
