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...

I love the Rommel's Revenge loading screen.
Wonder why those bright magenta tanks weren't more popular?

They are! You've just not seen any because that camouflage works so well.

Re: The best Speccy game by Crystal Computing: vote
Halls of the things/Rommels Revenge were equal in my mind. I did vote for one of them though!
Re: The best Speccy game by Crystal Computing: vote
It seems that Crystal computings USP is a blue/black screen describing, very clearly, horrible key choices!
1 - Cyber Zone. Bonkers. Hard to imagine on another system. Quite good fun.
2 - Halls of the things. I never got into this, but I know enough about it to feel it should be 'up there'.
I nearly put "Wooluf" at #3, but I can only choose 1 & 2 really. Hand on heart, I'm not able to say this UDG sheep herding game beats Rommel's Revenge or the two text adventures.
*actually both 1983, but it's a fair guess to say that BB came first.
Yep I couldn't let Cyberzone get just one vote. Also, thanks to this poll, I've learnt that Bug Blaster was the author's precursor to it*.

Joint third place, with 2 votes each: Cyber Zone and It's The Wolluf!
Finally, the joint fifth place, 1 vote each: Bug Blaster and The Island.
