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

June 26, 2016 by Villordsutch

We descend rapidly from the petrol-headed world of Buggy Boy, as we pull a chair up to the virtual table for our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100.  Our gaming universe suddenly becomes somewhat quieter with the ZX Spectrum version of the board game Scrabble. Scrabble – or as it’s correctly known here Computer Scrabble – was […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #64 – Buggy Boy

June 25, 2016 by Villordsutch

After the brilliance that was Batty we don’t have to travel far as we journey to our next game in the Your Sinclair Top 100 as Buggy Boy – at No. #64 – is also from the Elite Systems Ltd. publishing house too. Buggy Boy was originally released on the arcade from Tatsumi in 1985; […]

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

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 […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #66 – Splat!

June 23, 2016 by Villordsutch

Leaving the round-house kicks with Way of The Exploding Fist behind us, we look at a game that on first impressions you may want to walk away from, but if you stick around for a few minutes Splat! – at no.#66 in the Your Sinclair Top 100 – will hook you in for hours! Splat! […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #67 – Way of the Exploding Fist

June 22, 2016 by Villordsutch

After necking a few ales in Tapper yesterday it’s only right that we take ourselves off and attempt to bring order and control to our lives – and this can only be achieved by dishing out a few roundhouse kicks into somebody’s to the face. We’ve arrived at Way of the Exploding Fist number #67 […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #68 – Tapper

June 21, 2016 by Villordsutch

Polar opposites now from yesterday’s Match Point which was all healthy people and Barley Water (whatever that is?) to working in a bar with Tapper today, where the only serving you have here is flinging ale down a bar to patrons before they grab you by the neck. Tapper was released by the ‘publish anything […]

Video Game Review – Double Bubble on ZX Spectrum

June 20, 2016 by Villordsutch

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: #69 – Match Point

June 20, 2016 by Villordsutch

After the dire Tempest clone yesterday – dubbed G-Force – we’ve arrived at our second sports game so far in the Your Sinclair Top 100 (the first being Football Manager), this being Match Point from Sinclair Research Ltd. Match Point was published in 1984 from Psion Software, the software publishing house behind Horace Goes Skiing, Flight […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #70 – G-Force

June 19, 2016 by Villordsutch

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). […]
