The best modern Speccy game beginning with M: 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 M), and then I run a week-long poll here starting from next week. At the end of that, we can say we've got halfway through the alphabet!

Away you go!

Good letter. Even some of the CGC entries are pretty good for "M"!

Maze Death Rally-X - perfect arcade port
More Tea, Vicar? - looks and sounds sexy enough to get away with the slowness
MultiDude - puzzle platformer (and rather good multicolour)
Metal Man Reloaded - if Don Priestley did guns, not cartoons
Monty Mole and The Lost Souls - one of the best AGD games ever
Manic Pietro - if Nintendo employed Matthew Smith to make MM for a more powerful computer
Majikazo - very classy MSX port
Monono - okay 'just' another churro, but it's everyone's favourite "ever-serious monkey"!
Mike, The Guitar - being chased by Beethoven to the tune of Mike Oldfield. Captures the spiwit of Brian Bloodaxe.
The Malignant Gore - very decent indirect control game.
Mushroom Man - originally a CGC game! Revamped with Dr BEEP's help into a MASSIVE puzzle game. True to his style, the graphics are... rustic
Mr. Vintik - looks ropey, plays great
Mole Rat! - best game with a naked mole rat on the speccy. No argument.

We may have to go with that—Prodge has probably run for the hills after seeing the size of the list!

Well, I have an easier-than-normal job with the three classic software label polls, so I guess it's all swings and roundabouts!
