The Codies have done it again. Yet more brain teasing action than you ca handle in one big bundle. Here's something that looks set to take the charts by storm, unless I'm very much mistaken. Five excellent Code Masters blasts, three of them never seen before on the CPC format, coming together to make a superb all-round package of entertainment. As you can imagine, there is a whole host of puzzles and conundrums to solve, not to mention the vast array of objects that need to be picked up and used at crucial moments. This is a real gem of a game and should do blindingly well as a release in its own right. Next we have the inimitable Little Puff, who is off to Dragonland to further his adventures. If you know Little Puff, then you'll like this one, as he desperately tries to find his way home through the hostile environment. Brilliant cartoon fun and totally addictive. The next new release is Spike in Transylvania, which sees you. as the hero, battling through the spooky Transylvanian castle, on the hunt for your lost Viking comrades. You may have been washed ashore in your Longboat, but this one is certainly no washout, featuring plenty of arcade adventure and bundles of fun along the way. Again, this one is great fun and guaranteed to hook you from the very start. The other new release is a tremendous offering called Slightly Magic. Here, you must take on the role of the novice magician, solving puzzles a plenty and leaping from platform to platform, to try and put an end to the chaos in Bigwiz the wizard's laboratory. The only problem is that you are only a novice and, as the title says, only slightly magic, so don't be alarmed when things don't go quite as you want them to. Excellent fun and a guaranteed success as an individual release. I-ast up on this superbly crafted Codies' compilation, is the original Dizzy itself. If this one has not been played by every CPC game lover by now, then there must be something seriously wrong. A landmark in gaming when it originally hit the streets, this brilliant blast is every bit as fresh as it was back then and is guaranteed to raise laughter, as well as tears of frustration. Each of the games feature the usual Code Masters colours and style, making for brilliant gameplay and great fun to boot. Try it and you'll see what I mean. Jim Johnson, ACU #9202 |
