From one strategy game to another, as we arrive at Hyperaction, No. #82 from Silversoft. A puzzle game that upon first appearance you may despis, but after a few further rounds, this could become one of your firm favourites. Hyperaction was created by Iain Christopher Hayward, Jay Derrett back in 1984. Initially Hyperaction seems like a […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #83 – Football Manager
It takes a steely nerve to put a curly-haired, bearded chap smiling on the cover of something and then expect it to sell well. In truth this only really happens once a decade it being Bob Ross’ (Deceased) turn the decade before. However when Kevin Toms appeared, smiling on the cover of his Football Manager […]
The Top 10 Greatest ZX Spectrum Tunes Ever!
Going through the Top 100 Your Sinclair games [follow the countdown here] I’ve become aware of the rather brilliant – and also dire – tunes that were designed around the games – some hidden amongst levels, but most placed in a prominent spot as the game’s main theme. Not wanting to be overly biased I strolled along […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #84 – Technician Ted
If our gaming life was our C.V. it would look rather interesting over the past few days space fighter extraordinaire, trash man, defender of the human-race and now today a technician in a chip factory as our life brings us to Number #84 Technician Ted. In our second Hewson Consultants game within the Your Sinclair […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #85 – Guardian 2
After the grounding role of a refuse collector in Trashman from yesterday’s Your Sinclair Top 100, we’re back into the murky depths of outer space in this Defender-like game, as No.#85 on the list is Guardian 2. Published by Hi Tec Software in 1990, I recently discovered – thanks to a programmer from the past named Rich Stevenson – […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #86 – Trashman
After the heroic adventures in space with Codename: MAT, we’re brought down to Earth with a very large bang as our role in life becomes one in which you have to deal with everybody’s daily rubbish: Number #86 is Trashman published by New Generation Software from way back in 1984. Though the idea of a computer […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #87 – Codename: MAT
Yesterday we had Wheelie, a rather brilliant piece of imagination, and today with No. #87 we drop into Codename: MAT – or as it’s also know Codename Mission: Alien Termination. Micromega, who produced a number of games which ranged from Postman Pat’s Trail Game to the ultimate Deathcase, created Codename: MAT way back in 1984. We […]
The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #88 – Wheelie
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: #89 – Cobra
Today we return to another Ocean Software movie tie-in – the last one being RoboCop back at No. #94 – but while this movie tie-in has Sylvester Stallone on the cover of the box, this image – quite frankly – is the strongest link you’ll be seeing to the actually Cobra movie. Yes it has Ingrid in it […]
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 […]
