going in a completely opposite direction, Jasper
has brought us a Gravity Force/Biplanes clone for
2 players only.  2 Spaceships are on the same
screen in which they have to kill each other,
a simple idea, a bit of a rip off from Gravity
Force and Biplanes but works well and who cares

TRAP 'EM .............................................. 1   XSG667
A simple but addictive platform romp. Negotiate the 3
towers by destroying all the monsters on each level.
Lay traps so that the various creatures get caught,
then blast them to bits to finsh them off. The 3
towers each contain 10 levels and every 5 levels are
split with a `gravity-ridden' jetpack course. There

grid on the left identical to that on the right.  This
is done by pressing the left mouse button on individual
GemZ.This in turn will make the GemZ Change colour. In
the middle of the screen between the two grids is the
order in which the GemZ change colour.How each Gem
changes colour will depend on which game level you
are playing.In the easiest level,the Gem which is
clicked on changes to the one which is two places
lower down.  The adjacent GemZ will change one
place lower.If the bottom of the list is reached,
then the Gem will disintegrate,and all GemZ above
it will fall down to fill the gaps (like Tetris).

playing cards. Thirteen cards are dealt to form a
reserve, known as The Demon with only the top card
being visible. The next card is dealt face up, to the
right of The Demon, to start the first of four
foundations. During the game, as each other card of
the same rank as this becomes available, it is placed
in line with the first to begin the remaining

Pengo is a maze-game. The maze is made up of blocks
of ice, which you can push or melt. Blocks are melted
by pushing a block that has another block directly in
front of it. If that sounds confusing (and it probably
does), play the game, and you'll understand what I

and still is today.

SPACED OUT ............................................ 1   XSG621
2 excellent platform games which will keep the kids
quiet for ages and ages. Ace the Space Case and
Sound the Space Cadet.

LEGIONS OF DAWN DEMO .................................. 1   XSG620
Legions Of Dawn is a mega-atmospheric single-player
3D roleplaying game viewed from first person
perspective - in other words as though you are
'inside' the  game world and viewing it through your
own eyes. The various futuristic constructions that
you must attack and defeat are represented by complex
maze-like networks, composed of corridors, rooms,
doors, computer terminals... a whole array of exciting
and fully interactive elements  (2 MB RAM REQ)

EGG SCRAMBLE .......................................... 1   XSG619
The BARMIEST most stupid game i have ever seen. It
is also one of the BEST games i have ever seen. Two
chickens running round at supersonic speed trying to
pick up eggs and take them back to your nest. All this
going on with a hardcore ravey track in the background.
** FANTASTIC GAME **

DELUXE PACMAN V1.6 ECS ................................ 1   XSG618
Our yellow hero Pacman must eat all of the pills in
the maze to get to the next maze. But danger lurks
in the maze. Four evil ghosts are looking for Pacman,
and they want to stop Pacman from getting to the next
maze. In the maze there are some power pills that
Pacman can eat, and he can then kill the ghosts for
a limited time. There are also some fruits that
popup from time to time, and Pacman can eat these
for extra bonus points. And sometimes some special
tools will appear which, when eaten, may affect
Pacman or the pills or even the ghosts. Some will
speed up Pacman, some will give random points and
some will lead to extra levels.

LETHAL FORMULA ........................................ 1   XSG617
As usual some mega-corporation has stolen a secret
formula and you, as Professor Endsworth, must retrieve
it from their spaceship before it is sent off to
worlds unknown.  Created using the GRAC program (which
we stock as F1 Gold), I was quite surprised to find
Lethal Formula to be an absorbing game.  The graphics
aren't too bad either.  While it doesn't really reach
the presentation standards of commercial games, it is
as always, in the type of game, the addictiveness of
the gameplay that matters and Lethal Formula, in
spite of sounding like a Mel Gibson film that you
would go out of your way to avoid, has its fair share
of absorbtion power. :- CU Amiga 82%.

TRITUS ................................................ 1   WSG616
This is preview of new 3 player, yes 3 player
tetris clone! It looks very promisin and is
great fun, as I'm sure you can imagine.

FRIDAY NIGHT POOL ..................................... 1   WSG615
Reviewed in the latest Amiga User International,
receiving 88%.  It looks and plays like Team 17'
Arcade Pool, and there is also a Strip mode which
is optional, which means you can play against
male or female opponents, who will strip if they
lose! Quality PD title for all game fans.

AQUARIUM SIMULATOR .................................... 1   WSG614
A very unusual sort of game.  In this you have to
simulate a fish tank? yes, I said fish tank.  It's
a similar sort of thing to the Sim Earth, City, Ant
etc in which you have to build a fish tank, feed
fish, grow plants, etc.  Fun and unusual.
Needs MUI.

ZEEWOLF 2 DEMO ........................................ 1   WSG613
Demo version of the stunning sequel of the 3D heli-
copter blaster.  Faster gameplay, more power, more
weapons, a wicked demo, for all 1meg machines except
amiga 4000.

DAMAGE WOLF V2 ........................................ 1   WSG612
At last, a doom clone for all you 500 owners.  This
will run on a 500 but is recommended for AGA machines
and a fats processor.  A hard drive is also needed.
Anyone with an A500/+/600 etc, upgrade NOW, why live
in the dark ages.

GRAVITY FORCE II v1.10 ................................ 1   ZSG611
heres an update of the, well, arguably the best PD
game available.  Similar to it's predecessor, but
contains updates which improves the game performance
enough to notice.  This is actually the registered
version which is now freeware.  For all the fans out
there, this is truly **BRILLIANT**

WATER ................................................. 1   YSG610
this is not really a game, its meant as a stress
beater, the idea is to set up a course for the
running water. positioning obsticles in the way of
the water, and placing a finishing point wherever you
like.  very unusual, if you're stressed, get it, it
might help.

RAGE OF MAGIC ......................................... 1   YSG609
an unusual role playing sort of game.  you can have
upto 4 players, in which you have to select a wizard
of your choice.  the idea of the agme is to select a
backdrop to lay in front of, and you can move about in
turns and cast spells at each other, the idea is reduce
the 100% mark from your opponent to 0%, then you have
won.  a good idea that works well, especially well
considering it was programmed in AMOS. nice graphics,
if this sounds your sort of game, why not take a look,
its only 75p for heavens sake.

SUPER SKIDDY THINGS 3 ON ICE .......................... 1   ASG608
a rip off of super skidmarks, although in my oppinion,
is better.  ok, you have your limitations such as 8
player option and hi-res screen mode, and you can only
have two vehicles racing at any one time, (well you
actually control teddy bears).  But the game game play
is brilliant, especially in two players.  You can
select  out of 4 tracks, how fats you wish to go ie,
slow, medium, fast, super speed etc etc, and you can
select how icy you want the track to be,so if the
track major icy, you wouldn't want to have top speed,
but your opponent might think hes got more of a chance
going fast, get my drift.  anyway, the graphics are
brilliantly rendered and for once a great creation
which ISN'T for the aga machines only. ** STUNNING! **

MACHO KILL ............................................ 1   ASG607
This program was written in amos, in the style of
operation wolf and zombie apocalypse.  very fast hard
hitting action, similarly gory to zombie apocalypse.
great fun for the fast reflex gifted persons.

ULTIMATE MANAGER v1.1os ............................... 1   ASG606
at last, a good shareware football management
simulator. it's a cross between championship manager
and football tactician 2.  Obviously its not as good
as these but you shouldn't expect brilliance now
should you.  This version is only shareware, so you
will find the teams and players are extremely out
dated, but if you register your copy for about a
measly £7, you can edit your teams and players,
bargain eh?

FORMULA ONE GRAND PRIX EDITOR v3.0 .................... 1   ASG605
are you still playing formula one grand prix, yes,
have all your drivers moved to other teams or are you
still playing with default teams and drivers, well now
you can do something about and update your teams.

reviews in amiga format.
