If the weather gets too bad there is nothing like a
quick round of golf in the comfort of your own home. FAIRWAY CHALLENGE
is an 18 hole golf course complete with most of the hazards found on the
real thing. Play is controlled by the keyboard and you select your
choice of club, the strength of your swing and the direction of shot.
When you reach the green you need select only the strength of shot. The
graphics are good and the doc file gives hints and tips on play. MAGIC
FIRE is a 'room' type game in which you move around collecting boxes
while avoiding the magic fires. Nice bold graphics and difficult play
lend this one an air of quality. SLITHER is a Nibbler done in machine
language and extremely well done. If you are hooked on this style of
game you will enjoy this variant. In SAGUARO you find yourself in the
desert complete with the cacti of the title. Well, not quite because
these cacti grow from eggs dropped by a vulture! Your job is to round up
the eggs before they hatch whilst the vulture who will carry you away if
he catches you hovers above. You cannot stay out in the desert heat for
too long and so must make it back to your cabin with at least one egg
every so often. If you fancy a spot of gardening try LAWNMOWER in which
you must just cut the grass. Of course there are problems like avoiding
a couple of neighbours on level 1, making sure you don't fall down holes
on level 2 and trying to mow down the Mad Planter on level 3. If you
don't he'll keep replanting the mown areas. Last one is SPEEDSKI, a neat
little downhill racer that will give you a few hours pleasant diversion.
