‘Fists of Fury’ Game Review – Ninja (1986)

The second Entertainment USA release in this mini-series, and this is a vast improvement over Cage Match, although not without its own quirks.

Game Review – Molecule Man (1986)

An obvious attempt to replicate the success of isometric adventures like Knight Lore and Alien 8… which failed!

Game Review – Back to Reality (1986)

When the best thing you can say about a game is that the cover art reminds you of Star Wars, it’s not really promising is it?

‘Behind Enemy Lines’ Game Review – Galactic Patrol (1986)

Next up is a BBC Micro game, one of the few exclusives for the system from Mastertronic.

‘Behind Enemy Lines’ Game Review – The Apprentice (1986)

Something different for my latest mini series, as I take a look at Mastertronic games for other 8-bit systems, which never made it to the C64.

First up is an Amstrad CPC game called The Apprentice, a flick-screen adventure offering...

‘Olympic Sports’ Game Review – Bump Set Spike! (1986)

I rather enjoyed the Beach Volleyball at the Olympics – the women’s version that is! The same can’t really be said for this Volleyball simulation on the Entertainment USA branding however...

Game Review – Panther (1986)

Isometric perspective shooters are complicated, but this one is very nicely put together!

Game Review – Zub (1986)

Platforming action from the Pickford Brothers and some shameless Star Wars plagiarism on the cover art!

Game Review – Street Surfer (1986)

My last review before I go away on holiday for a couple of weeks, and it’s one of my personal favourites.

Game Review – Ice Palace (1986)

An early M.A.D. offering here, an interesting action/adventure hybrid with a rather peculiar control system.

Game Review – Los Angeles SWAT (1986)

My first review of an Entertainment USA branded game, and some mediocre run and gun action...

‘On Yer Bike’ Game Review – Speed King (1986)

My next batch of five game reviews takes the form of a mini series with a recurring theme. The series is called ‘On Yer Bike’ and the theme is games featuring motorbikes or regular bicycles. First up is Motorbike racing simulation Speed King…

Game Review – Hollywood or Bust (1986)

All the fun of the movie industry in my latest game review!
