Temptation Software, then. No, I've never heard of them either, but they were around in the early years and they cropped up as I flicked through the pages of the first edition of Crash, so here we are.
Some of their output is quite cerebral - strategy, management, card games and adventures. Anyway, here's what I believe is the full list of their ZX Spectrum games...
Admiral Graf Spee
Baron
Blackjack
Challenge
Dungeons Of Doom
Fruit Machine
Godzilla And The Martians
Higher-Lower
Journey, The
Las Vegas
Master-Code Deluxe
Hope I've got it right, so we can start a week-long poll this time next week...

Me too. I've always been afraid of this moment!
Well, a good excuse to try some of them, anyway!

Strangely, I'm not even tempted to try these games!

Mmm, I'm afraid nobody knows that company nor the games
Let's draw straws for the winner!

I vote for Godzilla and the Martians.
With a title like that it's got to be good, right?
Right?

Admiral Graf Spee is one I remember as I always thought it had a weird name, though I never actually played it.
Just been reading a few reviews about The Journey. A text adventure in BASIC and machine code, from the reviews it sounds like a painfully slow experience but the game characters are apparently quite independent and most mags have suggested it's worth a try. Not sure I would've paid full price though...

Nope, not heard of any of them.
I’d better get playing them

I might have played the Journey, and if its the game i'm remembering, its good. Will need to see the voting thread and pics to remind me. I often rely on the screenshots these days
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...
