Super Deflex

Super Deflex just ahead of Bomber aka City Bomber

Why pics of ZX81 version of Bomber?

Ooops! Sorry, pure mistake from me, I copied the game URL and image URL from Llamasoft's ZX81 version, which got listed first. Thanks for pointing it out, I'm just within the hour window to edit my post and put the proper ZX Spectrum screenshots and link in there. (So now it looks like you're a liar!) Thanks once again.

never played any one of these, and screens aren't helping me to determine which one's worse

I don't know any of these...

What can you expect of a company with that name?

WIWC · Post by **WIWC** » Tue Dec 17, 2019 8:07 am

Yeah, that's why I kept myself at safe distance from these games, probably.

But now I'm thinking about Toposoft, which is the spanish for Mole... 'Molesoft'... sounds weird as well!

But I think there's a 'slight' difference in quality of both companies...

But the warning about illegal copies is something that I find cool of this company... if every company had done the same method against piracy, it would have never been a problem!

I didn't know that. I thought "topo" was mouse, because "topo" means mouse in italian.

Headbanger's Heaven has won it, with 5 votes. (It's also the only Llamasoft game I played on the Speccy, although I didn't vote in this poll.)

Super Deflex is second, with 2 votes.

Joint third place, 1 vote each: Bomber and Rox III.

There is only one proportional vote that took place, so that's literally the proportional result, with Headbanger's Heaven coming top...

3 Headbangers Heaven
2 Bomber
1 Rox III

Right, I'll return to the polls in early January. I'm taking some time out during the end-of-year break for the obvious social activity; some freelance work and hopefully the completion of the Reheated Pixels video on Double Dragon. Phew.
