The best Speccy game by Micromega: vote
AKA the one where Deathchase will storm it.
Micromega published a lot of simple casino and puzzle games, but they did have some pretty neat efforts, more than a few by Derek Brewster.
They also developed a lot of educational software for Longman, but we're not concentrating on that, we're after ZX Spectrum games published under the Micromega brand and here are all 17 of them..
Blackjack
Brainstorm
Braxx Bluff
Codename Mat
Craps
Day In The Life, A
Deathchase
Dominoes
Full Throttle
Haunted Hedges
Jasper!
Kentilla
Luna Crabs
Monte Carlo
Puzzler
Roulette
Starclash

1. Deathchase (SURPRISE!)
2. Jasper.
3. Haunted Hedges (I was young, ok?)
I always found Jasper so damned hard, but loved it. Actually one that I played because of the glowing Crash! review. I wanted to love it as much as they did, so I did. Aren't kids weird?

As much as I wanted to vote for Luna Crabs, as it was the first game I ever bought and played on my first speccy, I've gone for Deathcahse because it's just so damn good.

If the collision detection on ADITL was a little bit better then I would have placed it above Deathchase.

I've gone for Full Throttle, I thought it was a really good racing simulation for its time. And Deathchase doesn't really need any more votes.

Re: The best Speccy game by Micromega: vote
Unsurprisingly, the winner here by a long way, is Deathchase, with 70% of the vote share - 23 votes!
A Day In The Life is a distant second, with 6 votes.
Full Throttle is fourth, 3 votes.
Puzzler is fifth, 1 vote.
Proportionally, Deathchase still storms it, but the rest of the nominations are quite different...
Deathchase 25
Jasper! 11
Full Throttle 10
Day In The Life, A 8
Kentilla 2
Luna Crabs 2
Braxx Bluff 1
Haunted Hedges 1
