If you missed
the old Atari User, you missed some great arcade style games but, no
worry, here is a selection of the best. In SANTA'S GROTTO you must guide
Santa around several linked mazes to collect his presents. The total
maze extends over several screens making it a challenge to work out the
links. FENCE BUILDER has a fancy storyline about a nuclear reactor
making your tools come alive(!) but is a neat game in which you have to
erect four fences using posts and panels while avoiding the moving
tools. FRANK THE FRUIT FIEND is your basic platform game in which Frank
must gobble up all of the fruit on every level and of course, avoid the
nasties. GREEDY GUNTHER is a somewhat uncontrollable fellow who needs to
eat up a lot of dots and avoid death traps and brick walls. What makes
this one challenging is that Gunther wont keep still and you can't relax
for one minute. SKATE CRAZY is, well, crazy! On a pair of roller skates
you have to avoid worms coming up out of the ground and jump over what
look like hamburgers being thrown at you! DOCTOR BORIS is an interesting
version of the classic in which you run around trying to catch things
while leaving walls behind you. This one is made more difficult by the
fact that you are trying to catch time bonuses which rapidly count down
and often disappear just as you get to them. To round off FRUIT GAMBLER
is one of the best slot machine simulations around. Your chance to play
the slots without paying the price. A great collection for gamers of all
ages.
Requires enhanced density drive. Boot with
Basic.
