Comments
Terrorpods - 7
 * Skillful conversion from 16 bit smash hit. Gameplay is fast, animation and graphics good, but lacks a certain flash of brilliance. Phil South

Blood Brothers - 7
 * An annoying platform shoot 'em up, saved only by a savagely addictive sub-game. David McCandless

Mickey Mouse - 9
 * Violence, waterpistols and cute lickle rodents. What better night's entertainment could you ask for (fnar)? Ben n' Skippy

Desolator - 7
 * Birrova hybrid of Ikari Warriors and Gauntlet, quite good fun, but not as good as either of the above. Duncan MacDonald

ArcticFox - 5
 * Fairly dire conversion of a 3D tank game that could have had a lot going for it. Duncan MacDonald

Skate Crazy - 9
 * A beautifully presented and very tricky roller-skating avoid 'em/collect 'em and do lots of stunts 'em up. Great stu%£*D4j. Duncan MacDonald

Where Time Stood Still - 9
 * A superb arcade adventure for 128k owners only. All the thrills of lost worlds and lands that time forgot in a true computer movie! Rachel Smith

Gutz - 7
 * Competent kill, grab and map game which should keep you burying around your innards for a while. Sean Kelly

Hercules: Slayer of the Damned - 4
 * A Herculean failure with about as much content as an empty bag. Jonathan Davies

Wizard Warz - 3
 * Glad to see Go! are maintaining their standards... Bad news, don't buy it. Ben 'n Skippy

Street Sports Basketball - 5
 * Unimpressive sports sim that won't set your joystick on fire (ouch!), let alone the world. Jonathan Davies

Lazer Tag - 3
 * Unoriginal, unplayable, overpriced and generally unappealing. Laser Tag has very little going for it - stay well away... Ben 'n Skippy

The Flintstones - 6
 * Good conversion of the TV characters, let down by trying to put in too many other bits in too. Sean Kelly

Vixen - 6
 * Looks all right, but this rumpyish runaround is less enthralling than it might've been. Ben 'n Skippy
