Hello, alexeenko
Yeah, difficult childhood, kilobyte toys...
What kind of descriptions are these, 500 games?
I think I had one, but it doesn’t look like the version from the collection. Just a lot of descriptions
real toys. Maybe it’s just a different publisher... I was also flattered by the treasured
the number 500... A bunch of "ZX Spectrum" inscriptions on the cover and no pictures.
If the books were preserved, they would scan them and post them on virtual_trd_dos.

Gad> existed?..
The version for Speck seemed to have even been completed, but was not released due to the trial
Nintendo. As for other platforms, by the way.
P.S. Nintendo are assholes, Giashka came out better than Mario, despite the obvious
plagiarism :D

Hello, moroz1999
I remember that at one time I read in the series of books “500 games” about supposedly
existing game Great Giana Sisters on ZX. This game itself was originally released on
commodore 64, and was a clone of Super Mario (well, almost a clone - very similar in
gameplay). I've been looking for Great Giana Sisters on cassette for a long time and never found it.
Now, rummaging through various TZX and TRD archives, I see that it seems that such a game never existed
basically. Another myth?...: Apparently, yes. Or rather, it is almost certain that
yes. Why then did “500 Games” publish a description of this game?...
[EDIT:] Oh, I found information on www.worldofspectrum.org that the game
was never released on ZX... And yet I wonder why publish it then
describing her as if she really existed?..

Hello, alexeenko

But it turned out cool! I'm really into Metal Mutants. I have
PC version, which I never completed, because... there were some passwords needed for
enter the database...
ale> After part 3 of the descriptions of real games there were less than 50%
And now we will be pleasantly surprised when games appear whose descriptions
were in these collections a long time ago, and we have already given up on them, thinking that
this is another deception... Rath-Tha is the clearest example of this!

Hello, ice'di^triumph
ice> No, this is about VaPrint, but... The salon is in no way inferior to them...
But weren’t 500 games of Solon and VaPrint identical?..
By the way, I am haunted by the description of the game T.R.K. in one of these collections. from
Codemasters. It does not fit any of the games I know on different platforms.
What kind of glitch is this?..
And one more thing: in these wonderful books I really liked the pearls of words and turns of phrase.
descriptions of some hamulkas. We need to pull out the quote somehow!!! :)

Hello Slider
There was a toy in the collection - Sherlock, with a pure soul I thought it was awesome
beautifully drawn quest, with a lot of details and actions, with various options
passing...
That's how she was described.
It turned out to be a text quest with a complete absence of any graphics.

The Silmarils company was famous for such tricks, constantly putting stupid people in a puddle
pirates. :) I have a normal crack lying around somewhere, if needed. You can also
look for versions on ST and Amiga.

Hello Lethargeek
Level9 company in recent adventures requested a password not only during shipment
position (which was treated with a snapshot), but also on, say, the thousandth move. RPGs from
Silmarils also often asked for a password in the middle of the playing field
