| Paperboy | Elite | 1986 | THE ARCADE CLASSIC COMES HOME. Hop on your bike for a free-wheeling ride up the avenues of not-so-typical suburbia. There are papers to be delivered, robbers to be foiled, and fame and fortune to be won as you brave the mean streets. Avoid motorcycles, tricycles, traffic, tires, gratings, curbs, dogs, skateboarders, breakdancers, bad guys, and other hazards as you deliver to your customers. Earn bonus points by hitting targets along the obstacle course at the end of your route. With superb animation and sound effects, Paperboy brings home all the thrills, spills, challenge, and excitement you loved in the arcades.*** [147]*** [135]*** [127]*** [6]*** [28]*** [62]*** [42]*** [6]*** [4]*** [8]*** [10]*** [48] | labelimagesubject |

| Barbarian: The Ultimate Warrior | Palace Software | 1987 | First the Black Plague, now this. Drax, the evil sorcerer, is holding Princess Mariana captive in his dark and dismal dungeon. And he’ll only release her to the warrior who can defeat his barbarian guards in deadly sword combat. Somebody gets the girl. While Drax looks on you’ll fight one-on-one against a string of his ruthless slaves—clashing swords in the forgotten dungeon, Drax’s throne room, the molten lava bed and in the dark, enchanted forest. As Gorth the hero-warrior, you’ll need to sharpen your sword skills—using powerful combination moves to cut down your opponents. If you fail, the court gremlin will throw you on the heap with the rest of the warriors. And then what will become of lovely Princess Mariana..? Clash with brawny barbarians in head-to-head sword combat. Only the best will take on Drax himself. Defeat your foes in the throne room, dungeon, lava bed or dark forest. Collect "trophies" using the hair-raising "web of death" chop. Cinematic graphics and metal-on-metal sound effects. Two-player practice option. Joystick controls.*** [147]*** [6]*** [8]*** [10]*** [33] | labelimagesubject |

| Barbarian II: The Dungeon of Drax | Palace Software (Icon Design) | 1988 | [52]***Mariana and the brave warrior must defeat Drax the evil sorcerer in his dungeons. He sends many deadly creatures to stop them. I like the Spectrum version; it plays smoother than on the C64 and is a little easier. Press [N] to enter caves, doors etc. | labelimageminimize |

| SDI | Activision | 1988 | An arcade game that was actually in the arcades, and quite popular at that. Basically an upgrade of [game=Missile Command]Missile Command[/game], requiring a joystick to move your sprite and a trackball to control your crosshair. Not a very fun game to play with just keyboard or joystick... A group effort, I can't remember exactly what artwork I did on it...it was a long time ago! [Ross Harris] | labelimageminimize |

| Licence to Kill | Domark (Quixel) | 1989 | License to Kill is a multi-level, multi-role game - you take the controls of helicopters, boats and tankers, perform some death-defying parachute stunts and take to the seas for a spot of barefoot waterskiing. A steady aim and steady fire is needed - shoot from the hip and take out the "baddies." It's action-packed and closely follows the latest adventures of the world's best kept Secret Agent in the brand new and most exciting movie of them all. James Bond in License to Kill... appearing now on a small screen near you!*** [6]*** [28]*** [42]*** [1] | labelimagesubject |
