That's a great guess, but unfortunately not the right game. I'd actually never heard of that title before.PeterJ wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 8:13 pm A way out guess for number 5...

How about
Mordon's Quest

My thought was South London town with tube stations being Morden.

I've never really taken the time to do these quizzes in the past. I can see now I have been missing out big time. Thanks for thinking them up.

Yes (though strictly the title is Flight Simulation).

Re: Easy-peasy crossword quiz
That's a great idea. I'll try to knock something together (using Spectrum examples).
I'll do more non-cryptic ones, too.
