The best modern Speccy game beginning with S: discussion

Post by PeteProdge »

Right, as I always say, I know almost nothing about the homebrew scene, so this is where you have seven days to nominate titles of modern ZX Spectrum games (this time beginning with S), and then I run a week-long poll here starting from next week.

Away you go!

Slubberdegullion
The Speccies
Sam Mallard: The Case of the Missing Swan.
Sophia

Although I enjoy Slubberdegullion more than Sword of Ianna, I think my vote will have to go the latter.

Fixed.
Fixed again. :D

I think we know which three games are guaranteed to get at least one vote each.

Well (obviously) I’d like to put forward my three ‘S’ games:

For all those left-field people who want to vote for something else... ;)

(Technically Stranded was written in the 80s, so not a modern game, but only published 30 years later)

I don't think The Smoog should really count as a modern game if it was released in 1984.
