Read what others have to say about the game. There are
many opinions, from magazines, websites, and even the radio!
In Print
- From Computer Gamer, a truly entertaining and immersive review from the UK. It appeared in issue #14,May 1986. It's a bit hard to read, so here is the online version, found here.
- From Australian Commodore Review (found on archive.org) comes a somewhat lukewarm review, though it dominates the front page.
- From Commodore Computing International, a British magazine. The
review appeared in the June 1986 issue.
- US Magazine
Computer Gaming World published a positive review in issue 29, June 1986
- One more from the US: 3-2-1 contact favorably reviewed the game in August 1986.
- From Happy Computer , a German magazine, and my own
humble translation. (found on krimskram.de). Later on, they published an extended version with personal reviews.
- That's what we like to see: a raving review in
commodore power/play in September 1986.
- Again from the UK: ZZAP!64 did an extensive review in Nr.13, May 1986 issue.
- Greek review from Pixel magazine
...and a translation courtesy of Billy.
- Your Sinclair originally (in May 1987) published the review
that's online in the Rock'n'Roll Years, see web links below. The print version is worth reading, there are a few extra jolly comments .
- The UK based
Crash magazine reviewed the spectrum version. The testers don't like it, but I guess most fans
will have played the C64 version.
- Same for Sinclair User May 1987 : The bile they
pour over the game is the final proof that the speccy version just couldn't match
the original release. Don't blame me: the review was in grayscale in the mag already.
- Also in May 1987, Computer Gamer is definitely
more positive with a 66% rating.
- And hey! Somebody liked the spectrum version: ZX Computing , June 1987,
rate it as "great". Thanks to
World of Spectrum for this and a few more scans!
- A latecomer from April 1988, in AmstradAccion you get an idea of the frustrations of gamers with that machine.
Here's a machine translation..
On Air
- Shane R. Monroe did an audio review on RetroGaming Radio in Episode 01-23-1999, taken from here
On youtube
- There are several videos of the gameplay, but I particularly want to recommend the review by
RPG Gamer, since it uses
the remake by Gary Wong, giving you an idea what it looks like.
