CommentsEdit

Target; Renegade - 93% - Tony Flanagan

Ideologically unsound man, but the gameplay is very addictive.

Football Manager 2 - 89% - Pat Winstanley

If you've any interest in football, you'll have fun with this.

Hoppin' Mad - 89% - Steve Lucas

One of the best games i've seen for ages.

Wizard Warz - 77% - Pat Winstanley

Very playable, but let down by the loading system and vague instructions.

Dark Side - 85% - Tony Flanagan

A polished performance, but you'll need to persevere.

Bionic Commando - 67% - Pat Winstanley

Unoriginal, but a nice mix of reflex, route finding and tactics.

Stunt Bike Simulator - 31% - Tony Flanagan

Don't waste your money.

European Five-a-Side - 80% - Ian Waugh

I just couldn't give it a low score.

Gee Bee Air Rally - 55% - Ian Waugh

A great idea but it could have been implemented a wee bit better.

Impossible Mission II - 65% - Denis Hemmings

Hardly entralling, but will give enjoyment to fans of the genre.

Street Fighter - 74% - Steve Lucas

Reasonable, but nothing special.

Star Trooper - 87% - Steve Lucas

An excellent game for the price.

The Fury - 38% - Ian Waugh

Way off target.

AdventuresEdit

CommentsEdit

Jinxter - 89% - Gandalf

An excellent game though a little overpriced. Certainly more fun to play than Magnetic Scrolls' previous two games.

Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less - 35% - Pat Winstanley

Overpriced - I'd buy the book on its own.
