I noticed that too. I wonder what can be so adult about Horace Going Skiing ;)

Generally it's all dark and tough compared to original inlays. Is it really the modern style???

Looks like they're going for the orange-and-teal look.

Is that even Horace?

It would be quite fun to do a remake of a game but ramp up the gore and adult themes. Starting with BC Bill. :)

Ain’t nothing adult or gore about B.C. Bill. It belongs firmly in the educational genre. Every young boy should know that in order to ensure a rock-solid future for your family, your club your women over the head and drag them into your cave.
Every man should plant a tree, build a house, and write a ZX Spectrum game.

I suppose we should return the favour by taking prolific modern games (Call Of Duty, FIFA, Red Dead Redemption, Kingdom Hearts, Grand Theft Auto, etc) and giving them mock-ZX-Spectrum inlays.
