They both have a limited parser but Mission 2 is the more polished of the two, so that got my vote.
I sometimes use Google Maps to look up where Software Companies were based, I assumed Mission Software to be some sort of homebrew, mail order type based in a flat or house and err, um...Crikey!

Voted for the second one as it was released later... so it must have been better.... right?
I don't have anything cool to put here, so i'll just be off now to see a priest with yeast stuck between his teeth and his friend called Keith who's a hairpiece thief...

Tried them both and couldn't get very far at all without visiting the Tipshop site. Mission 2 is the better of the two though, so I voted for that.

Well, the votes are in, and it's Mission 2, with 3 votes. Outright winner.
Mission 1 got absolutely ZERO votes, so it's not like I can say "wow, what a close call" or owt like that.

I just played Mission 1 (and managed to soft lock it, so completed it by cheating). Some interesting ideas but a bit dull.
You can't break in to the BASIC code. Or you can but it then instantly goes CONTINUE. 77 bytes of M/C and also line 1 of the program looks a bit weird/REM statement-y.

I have a little YouTube channel of nonsense
