5th Gear
Neo-Rio says: This game is like playing with a remote control car. A little frustrating at times, but addictive enough to keep you coming back to it.

Granny's Garden
Neo-Rio says: If you're old enough to remember playing this game on a Commodore 64 at your primary school, then you will have fond memories of this game like I do.

Kikstart II - The Construction Set
graveyardjohn says: Q: How much fun can you have with this?!! A: A lot! Re-enact those lost summer holiday mornings where unfortunate 12 year olds fell off their motorbikes and incurred time penalties. Dougie Lampkin not included.

Deactivators
graveyardjohn says: Don't be put off by the Speccy-esque graphics, this is a puzzle game without comparison. Get the bombs out of the building using skill, planning, and....robots.

Ninja
J2003C says: This is your basic side-scroller beat'em up game, but it has enough variety, difficulty and ambiance to make it pretty fun. I was never quite able to finish it without a trainer, but I still keep coming back and try to get past the last few bad guys without cheating.
|
Thrust
Neo-Rio says: Thrust is much like the old Atari game Gravitar, except this is way more playable and challenging. I always liked blowing the nuke reactor up before leaving the planet.
|
Loopz
Neo-Rio says: A nice but tricky puzzle game. Create loops with the pieces you are given. Bigger loops mean bigger points, but don't get carried away. The play area is very small! The Dave Whittaker soundtrack is great.
|
Deathwish III
Neo-Rio says: In this dull yet violent game, you get to blast people into carnage with a rocket launcher! There was a furore over it at the time, although long outclassed by more modern and graphically realistic violent games which nobody bats an eyelid at today.

Zork I - The Great Underground Empire
Jimbo says: This game is still hailed as one of the best text adventures of all time. Infocom's masterpiece is gripping, absorbing, addictive, and it has a great language parser! Go hunt for that treasure!
