WHALES VOYAGE A1200 £29.99 Flair 0836 327134
Whales Voyage is a Role Playing Game (RPG) like Eye of the Beholder,
only this time you are on a planet in space.
The game starts with you in command of four people, stranded in your
spaceship over one of the roughest planets in the solar system.
From here you only have two choices, go on to the planet and battle
with the locals while trying to get rich, or stay on the spaceship
and die!
The game itself is only improved from the A500 version with some spot
sound effects and some graphical enhancements.
I found this game to have some bad controls, which meant that while
you were messing around with the menus, you were getting killed !
Also the game lacked any depth to keep me playing for a long time.
If your a die hard RPG'er then I suppose you'll like this, otherwise
go and play Eye of the Beholder 2.

CIVILIZATION A1200 £39.99 Kompart 0727 868005
Civilization puts you in control of one of eight different tribes,
If you have enjoyed playing MEGA-LO-MANIA, you will be well pleased
with this game.
If you have never played a god game before, you will find this one
very easy to get into, and very hard to put down !
When you have chosen your tribe you are put on the planet with
nothing to use or do, so you must start digging and inventing,
and make some weapons,huts etc! before the computer controled tribes
come and attack you with there new found weapons !
The A1200 version boasts more colours and animations, like the waves
lapping at the shore on the beach ! Also added are better -stereo-
sound effects. All in all a very good game ! ! Add it to your
software collection now!
