CONTENTS:

THUNDERCATS: Great hack n' slash romp.

IKARI WARRIORS: Decent vertically scrolling shoot em up.

BUGGY BOY: Super off-road race game.

LIVE AND LET DIE: Pretty naff Bond game - rather like Roadblasters on water.

HOPPING MAD: Bounce your way to boredom in this tepid original title.

BEYOND THE ICE PALACE: Enjoyable Ghosts 'n' Goblins game, but not as good as the real thing.

OVERLANDER:Dodgy Roadblasters-style game that lacks addiction.

SPACE HARRIER: Good in its heyday, but now looking a bit ropey.

GLADIATOR: Vomit-inducing combat game.

DRAGON'S LAIR: Completely dire six-part arcade game.

Overall68%
Summary: Vast compilation of games - but only Thundercats and Buggy Boy are really fab. Gladiator and Dragon's Lair are totally crap, and the others vary from average to fairly good. Even through there are a lot of games here, you won't play most of them for very long.

Spectrum/Amstrad/C64 £12.99

Plenty of titles on this package, but apart from Buggy Boy, none of them are outstanding. Thundercats, Beyond the Ice Palace and Space Harrier are fun, but Dragon's Lair and Gladiator are downright awful.

REVIEW BY: Julian Rignall

Blurb: AMSTRAD SCORES Overall: 63% Like the Spectrum version, this compilation has plenty of titles, but only a few are exciting. You'll have fun trying them all out, but as a whole the package doesn't offer much lasting appeal.

Blurb: C64 SCORES Overall: 64% Buggy Boy, Beyond the Ice Palace and Dragon's Lair are great, but the rest are pretty poor. Fun for a while, but you'll only be playing a few of the games for a long period of time.
