Title: Word Up Word Down
Famously contained a hidden game (Save The Plebs?) which was far more fun than the
game itself.

Title: Xenon 2
This game deserves a four-star rating, apart from the fact that there's one slight
problem: Eclipse never actually finished porting this game! Unfortunately
only the
first level of the game has been fully implemented - later levels are completely
empty at points, sometimes for as long as 30 seconds. Pretty disgusting if you
ask me.
Only the latest versions run on the Risc PC. Versions prior to Acorn User January 1997
coverdisc release don't work with 16-bit sound.

Title: Zarch
Fun game which takes a lot of getting used to. Very impressive when
first released, and turned more than a few heads, but unfortunately now very
pedestrian.
