The best Speccy game by Anco Software: discussion

Post by PeteProdge »

Ah, Anco. Creators of that overrated and frankly diabolical football game series Kick Off. They put out just five games on the ZX Spectrum, here they are:

Kick Off
Kick Off 2
Kick Off World Cup Edition
Kingdom Of Krell, The
Rally Cross

...and they're up for the vote next week, but do warn me if there's something wrong with this list. Ta!

From a search in my Zx App, I found 2 more games:
Maria's Christmas Box and Strip Poker II Plus.
Is this correct?

...yes, it is the same Kick-Off I had on the Game Boy. Can't say I ever got much out of that game...
Spectribution: Dr. Jim's Sinclair computing pages.
Features my own programs, modified type-ins, RZXs, character sets & UDGs, and QL type-ins... so far!

Blimey, you're right!

These did not come up when I looked because this site has a 'safe' search,

In they go, and I'll be careful on the screenshots I choose!
