CONTENTS:

BLASTEROIDS: Extremely polished coin-op conversion which plays very much like the original.

THUNDERBLADE: Great conversion of Sega's 3D helicopter shoot em up coin-op.

LED STORM: Fun for a while, but this vertical scroller lacks long-term appeal.

IMPOSSIBLE MISSION II: Interesting and addictive spy-style arcade adventure.

INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM: Grotty conversion that deserves a whipping.

Overall	80%

Summary: Indiana Jones and LED Storm are the weak links in an otherwise worthwhile and varied compilation.

CONTENTS: Blasteroids, Thunderblade, LED Storm, Impossible Mission II, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (not on ST and Amiga versions).
Spectrum/Amstrad/C64 £12.99, ST/Amiga £24.99

Blasteroids, Impossible Mission II and Thunderblade are great, LED Storm is average and Indiana Jones is simply inept. Still, this is a decent compilation that offers hours of play.

REVIEW BY: Julian Rignall

Blurb: AMSTRAD SCORES Overall: 81% Again, the only poor game on this compilation is Indiana Jones. Blasteroids and Thunderblade are both great; combined with the other titles, this is a compilation that will keep you amused all Christmas.

Blurb: C64 SCORES Overall: 81% Impossible Mission II is a classic, while the others, apart from the horrible Indy game, are good, solid titles offering loads in the way of fun and addiction.

Blurb: ATARI ST SCORES Overall: 79% Apart from LED Storm, which is a bit of a weedy game, the games on this compilation offer a decent mix of blasting and adventuring. Recommended.

Blurb: AMIGA SCORES Overall: 80% Similar to the ST package, but all the games have improved graphics and sound. Featuring a decent mix of titles, Winners is an entertaining compilation of shooting and arcade adventuring.
