The first thing I noticed upon opening the cassette case was "Speedload" on Side 1 and "Supersafe" on Side 2. (Different I thought). So I proceeded to load as per, instructions and I was presented with a rather pleasant screen display. After reading the instructions I went on to play. The screen showed a grid marked around the sides with letters and numbers. There are 8 sectors each with a different grid display. The sound effects were reasonable and added a little more to the general layout. They tell you when it is your go and when you score a hit, which in my case was not very often. There were plenty of screen prompts which helped me understand the game. There are two play speeds fast and slow. I found the instructions a bit confusing at first but I soon got the hang of it. The game itself is a very sophisticated version of battle ships. With a handy 'save' feature so you can stop playing, save and come back to it later, the only fault I found was that there was no option for two players. Warzone is perhaps not everyone's cup of tea but it is a good game for those long winter nights.

Page créée en 454 millisecondes et consultée 3003 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
