This is another in Domark's TV Games series. It's based on the gruelling six round quiz to test physical and mental skills to the full. One to four people can play. The single player game is pointless, because you'll automatically win as there are no opponents Before play begins you also select which digitised picture represents you There are four male and four female pictures The six events are mental agility, observation response, physical ability intelligence and genera knowledge. In the mental agility round a series of numbers are flashed up onto the screen. You then have to sort the numbers into ascending numerical order and type them back in again. Next is the observation round, in which a picture and an associated story are displayed. Two versions are shown and you have to spot the text and picture differences. Round three is the response round where you have to propel an "ergobuggy" along a short course. You have to alternately press keys, but they must be pressed at different rates to keep the buggy moving. In the second part of the round the screen is divided into four sections and you have to say which corner has most TV's of the same colour. Physical ability is similar to the ergobuggy round only this time the four keys are treated individually You have to race along an assault course controlling your strength, stamina, arms and legs. Next is the intelligence round. Here you have to re-assemble a logo within a time limit. Finally there's the general knowledge round where each player tries to answer the questions first. There are some nice digitised pictures and the rest of the graphics are well done. Colour is used effectively too. The tunes are average in quality and sound effects are of a similar standard. This is better than Domark's last TV Game. Blockbusters, but they do still have a way to go. You could probably pass a few nights playing this with friends, but as a solo game it's useless. GBH, AA

Page créée en 106 millisecondes et consultée 4001 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. |
