I don’t know. I kind of like Komplex more than Komplex City. Decent was pretty awesome, though.
Every man should plant a tree, build a house, and write a ZX Spectrum game.

Oops! I suppose this shouldn't be in the poll after all then? :-/toot_toot wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2020 8:31 am I need to give Komplex City a try. I remember reading the review of it in Sinclair User and thinking it looked great, but never saw it in the shops. Turned out it was never officially “released” and was only rediscovered a couple of years ago.

Surprised how crap is The Great Space Race just by reading the posts. I knew it but I've never played it.

Well, to nobody's surprise, Valhalla's got this. That's an understatement, like 80% of the vote share, which I think might be the highest in any of my forum polls ever. 20 votes easily secures the winning spot for Valhalla, no question.
A distant second is Komplex, with 4 votes.
Then in third place, yes, seriously, somebody actually voted for the, um, disappointment that is The Great Space Race. I don't get that, but hey, it's democracy and there are a few rubbish Speccy games I really love, I guess we all have our own list.
We'll all pretend that I didn't actually list released-decades-after-Legend-collapsed Komplex City, right? It kind of, sort of, ish... counts, in a way, but erm... still not too sure. It's gained zero votes in the phpBB forum poll so I don't have to worry too much.
Over on the proportionals, only one person has voted, so it's entirely down to @Nick's opinion, which still supports the phpBB forum poll's winner...
Valhalla 3
Komplex City 2
Komplex 1
