1983 Valuesoft (UK)

A very basic variation on the Minesweeper game, originally from the 60's and cloned extensively throughout computer history.

And the final game of the Double Value Cassette is Deathtrap Mine. In this one you have to collect the five bags of gold in order to bribe your escape. But in between this you have to take part in some minigames, such as the Egotistical Gorilla where you have to type in his name that flashes up for half a second. I swear I reviewed something like this possibly last year or even a couple of years now and I can't remember the bloody name of it. When I do find it I will edit this review and insert it in for no-one to see or even care about, including yours truly. With all the minigames going on this is by default the best game in this compilation. However that mystery game I reviewed of a similar nature was better. But still, it took it to the last game but finally this compilation has something worth playing for more than a minute.

(It was Spectrum Safari and indeed it is better than this)
