Along time ago (tea-time last Wednesday to be precise!) in a galaxy fax, far away.

Thus opens Yarkon Blues, the latest game fiom Joan Pancott HPilg's WoW Software and the first for new author Jason Davis. The Balg saw this game fust many months ago when Jason sent it m to be reviewed but it really wasn't up to standard - it hadn't been playtested and it showed1 Since then Jason has, with the help of Lorna Patterson, polished this dull rock of a game into a little gem.

You play the pan of Rik McQuick, hero and all round good guy, who is relaxing on his cargo ship, Odour Eater II sampling the ship's cargo (Altanan Old McSpewans Spirit) when a stray empty can, thrown by Rik, hits the autopilot and the ship veers towards a small blue-yellow planet (called Yarkon). Next thing poor Rik knows, the planet's old missile defence system.

"-.you must somehow escape from the planet Yarkon. No problem for someone who is such a hero..."

which has been dormant for years, launches against Odour Eater II and our fearless hero.

Luckily. Rik. not being that fearless, jumps into an escape pod and lands on the planet, soon to be followed by the smouldering wreckage of his ship crashing through the sky As courageous, intelligent and mega-handsome (and not very modest') Rik, you must somehow escape from the planet Yarkon No problem for someone who is such a hero..

Enough of the scenario - what's the game like? 'Good' is the answer 60 locations in size. it has strong (and sometimes quite difficult) puzzles Yarkon is also ruthlessly filled with red herrings - one in particular threw the Balg During the game I came across a fish which was described as a red herring. however, thinking I Knew the game's quirky humour I spent ages trying to find a use for the fish only later to find that it was indeed a red herring !

Yarkon Blues is a GACed game with average graphics and oodles of humour. The strong and atmosphere puzzles make the game - the Balg hopes to see Rik McQuick again and looks forward to seeing Smirking Horror and 2001 A Space Oddity - Jason Davis' next two games Well worth buying.

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.
