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...

It's a miracle if in JB's Squash I hit the ball once or twice.

Sounds like squash in real life.

I played Jonah Barrington's Squash more than anything else (2 player with my brother) so that gets my vote.

2 player Jonah Barrington with a sibling was great. The real game being who could do the best impression of the Speccy screaming "not up" at you.

Re: The best Speccy game by New Generation Software: vote
I'd not played Custard Kid, and downloaded it to have a go. (It's ... okay).
Interesting that it's not by Malcolm E Evans (as nearly all of these are), and I had a quick peek around the memory to see if I could find any reference to who the author was (as it's not listed on the inlay) and spotted this...
... a chunk of (presumably) its own source code in there!

Re: The best Speccy game by New Generation Software: vote
Well, Trashman has run away with this. An immensely popular game that got 16 votes, the majority of them cast. It's a solid placing.
Strangely, the sequel, Travel With Trashman, fares rather badly in the phpBB poll, but let's move over to who won the second place, which is...
Cliff Hanger, with 6 votes.
Then Jonah Barrington's Squash in third place, with 3 votes. Possibly the only squash game on the ZX Spectrum?
Escape is in fourth, with 2 votes.
In joint fifth place, 1 vote each: 3D Tunnel; Knot In 3D and the aforementioned Travel With Trashman.
Trashman dominates the proportional poll too, but there's a respectable second placing for the sequel...
Trashman 22
Travel With Trashman 11
Cliff Hanger 5
Jonah Barrington's Squash 4
Knot In 3D 3
Corridors Of Genon 1
The Custard Kid 1
