Jumping Jack was one of the first games I ever played on the Spectrum. Simplistic but classic early 80's gaming from a time when instructions and redefinable keys were unnecessary. You get the idea of the game within 2 seconds of gaining the controls and then it takes about 2 hours to walk away. With rose tinted specticles pushed firmly onto my face, this is an original and classic piece of early spectrum gaming.

The best horizontal beat-em-up on the Spectrum IMO. Best played with 2 players, the solid feel of impact as you lay into your enemies and excellent collision detection was never bettered on the Spectrum.

I never liked it. Especally the top down driving bit. A typical movie tie in that's just really a series of poor mini games.

Top button bashing action!

I love this game. Good opening title music and image of your route through the UK. In game play was fustrating at times, with dodgey collision detection. Collecting the milk bottles to keep your energy from running out before the end of the stage could, on later levels be the end of the game in one wrong move! Milk Race could do with a password system on each stage to make the game a little easier. Only with the benefit of being able to 'snapshot' the image under emulation was I able to complete this game, and found out that sometimes on the last level their wasn't enough bottles to complete the stage anyway!!! There is no ending sequence (even if you win the race and not just complete it) which is an anticlimax to say the least!!!
