Woohoo..! Had almost forgotten about the centaur. Loved those monster graphics.

Was thinking the other day that Oracle's Cave was one of the few Speccy games I remembered that combined BASIC with machine code routines really well.

OK, have a go at this one:

I was just too late. I think Megabucks was the first screen I played on here. I was quite generous and gave the whole screen but edited out the sprite.

First I finish Manic Miner, then I guess the screen$, I'm on fire (not literally).
I don't want to break the portrait streak, so here's my riddle:

Rocky Horror Show without "Picture" (that's ironic because i chose a picture of a picture, but the title is without "picture").

I think it's correct enough!

What's weird is that I knew it right away despite not really liking the game or playing it much. Odd when that happens.

Anyway, here's the next one.

Not Dandy.

The picture hasn't scaled very nicely. I'll put a zoom out on later.

Nope.

Most people think of this game as being yellow, blue or green. Me going for a white bit is a little sneaky of me.
