Hello Trantor
Tra> "Three weeks in paradise"
:v2_thumb; Eeeee!!!; SUPER toy!!!
Hello, kyv_triumph
The one I remember most was “Three Weeks in Paradise.” The first game that I
launched on live ZX. What year was it? 86th or 87th. The screech of a tape recorder,
yellow-blue stripes.. and finally Mouzon. I immediately begged for a couple of cassettes and
soapbox for a week. I found some semblance of diagrams on rags... it was fiddling with
soldering iron :v2_smile; But; six months later it worked: v2_yahoo:
Hello, ice'di^triumph
Кстати:
Published; 05-06-2005;
Yeah! Finally the FINAL version is released!
Entering the fifth year of development, the Remake of Three Weeks in Paradise
has finally went Final. However, we haven't been working on it every day since
2001, if so, it would have a massive 3D engine, use celebrity voiceovers and so
forth. No, it's just the same old same old - with a number of improvements. All
we can say is; enjoy!

Hello Trantor
Probably a cool thing, maybe someone can post a screenshot??
Hello, hi_soft
If about Three Weeks in Paradise, then here it is.
But JPEG extinguished some colors, especially the glowing eyes of the bats.

Hello TomCaT
> Probably a cool thing, maybe someone can post a screenshot??
Nothing special. Not for everyone. There are enough screenshots on the site itself.
Only it’s not childishly buggy for me. Something is wrong with the graphics. Probably
I need a simpler machine. I'll try when I get there, on stump 733.
Hello Greyiron

Hello LoMik
LoM> There was also a toy I don’t remember what it was called... where Rome and Carthage are
LoM> fought. it was necessary to build boats, sail for gold,
LoM> conquer cities, attack enemy ships... such naval ones
LoM> there were battles... the two of us played together... just like in war2.
About Rome - this is probably Legions of Death, there are three of them on zx.da.ru. And
War is also there.

Hello Savage
On the Spectrum, I liked adventure games and various labyrinths most of all.
I forgot what the company was called, they made cool adventure games, I still remember them with graphics
etc. We need to take a look.
Games from Gargoyle games are not bad at all, they are complex and interesting
dundarach, heavy on the magic, tirnanog, marsport :v2_thumb;
Similar; they didn’t make similar adventure games anymore.
Hello Vitron
My TOP-10, in which I really played a lot, and continue to this day (In
including on Pocket):
1. Elite (I’ll just note that I like space combat more than economic
component)
2. Paris Dakar (Italian) (amazing gameplay, dozens of longest
real kilometers - tracks, simulation of a manual transmission, it’s surprising if
take into account the age of the toy)
3. Gunship (a thoughtful and beautifully crafted combat helicopter simulator)
4. Silkworm (I was simply amazed by the dynamic shooting and the abundance of missiles
weapons in the air)
5. Battle Command (what can I say - super! The graphics are at their best in terms of dynamism,
taking into account the 3D texture)
6. ER2 Simulator (our own development. Well, I love trains!)
7. Italy'90 (the football I liked more than others)
8. Exolon (classic and simply beautiful and dynamic)
9. Cyberun (my first space flight, it’s still very pleasing. It’s a pity
only that for some reason very few emulators can run it (runs
only in 48K))
10. Dizzy (everything is clear)
Hello Nomy Graphics
Nom> Cyberun (my first space flight, I’m very happy with it even now.
Nom> It’s just a pity that for some reason very few emulators can run it
Nom> (only runs in 48K))
it strangely polls the keyboard, after polling the out port (#fd),a
that's why it's buggy at 128k, look at the VT version from Slider, it seems to be fine
fixed it
Hello Harlequin
1. TILT (childhood game, I spent a lot of time on it)
2. Super Nudge 2000.
3. Dominoes.
4. Battleships.
5. Wec Le Mans.
6. Turbo Esprit.
7. Dan Dare 2.
8. Spitfire.
9. Ace 2088.
10. Sim City.
And many others.

At least write what toys?

Hello Costa
Cos> At least write down what toys?
Cos> And this is not at all offtopic.
Off the top of my head - Zamonarr (Cyberbig), Dragonia, some things from topo_soft,
which I had not seen before.
"A WEEK IN THE LIFE OF THE...THING" captivated me at first, but then disappointed me.
I'm afraid it's simply impossible to get past it.

Hello BYTEMAN
And I really like Mercenary - only in it, for example, did I have the feeling
real flight, but in modern flight simulators there is nothing similar
observed. And in general it’s fun to play
Hello klondike
So far, “Elite” consistently holds the lead among ZX games. Maybe later
what games will appear. :)

I can’t figure out how to play there. After 5 minutes of playing, the hand reaches for the button

MAD MIX
SLIGHTLY MAG

Hello Splinter
Remembering the classics, we must not forget about the game Wheelie - about a motorcyclist in
labyrinth River Raid is a must have.
Everything mentioned by forum visitors is a good guide to what exactly
download from the international network.
Hello GNTB
GNT> River Raid is a must have.
I agree here, but you need to take it on Atari :)
Hello BYTEMAN
BYT> I can’t figure out how to play there. After 5 minutes of playing, the hand reaches out to

Likewise, I don’t understand why ELITE attracts people so much. Most annoying
a long flight to the station, an incomprehensible 3D radar, primitive graphics and sound.
It's much more enjoyable to hack in Star Riders II.
My top ten:
Kings Bounty
Dizzy
Lord of Chaos
Laser Squad 1-7
Rebel Star 1,2
Space Crusade
Star Riders II
Return to Home 4
Last Hero of the light force
1812
Hello, Jukov
Juk> Laser Squad 1-7
bro... where do so many versions of laser squad come from? them, if my memory serves me right,
There are only two official ones :o

+1.
I don't like Elite either, but I love Star Raiders 2.
Hello, scl^mc
scl> bro... where do so many versions of laser squad come from?
most likely these are mission numbers.

This refers to the 7-level version, where the missing missions are added
converted from PC.
Hello, Jukov
Lord of Chaos
Laser Squad 1-7
Rebel Star 1,2
Space Crusade
Nether Earth
Yes, I accept it on Speccy!!!
:v2_finge:
Hello XOUT
MAD MIX
probably after all
Mad max

In Elite, the cassette version, the one I played had an interesting glitch - it was possible
fly into the same station from which you took off, and at that moment press the hipper button
transition, and immediately found myself at another station)))
But in this version, it immediately loses its attractiveness)))
I also really liked it for example
The way of the Exploading FIST, we staged such massacres))) sometimes
ending in a real brawl)))
And in general, the games on 2 on the Sinclair were cool - one on the joystick, the second on
clave - the same Silk Worm was played more than once on 2.
Target Renegat again.
