WORD PLAY Some Spectrum owners and not a few Commodore fans would vote, finally, for Scrabble as their favourite game on their computer. It's something to do with the seeming artificial intelligence involved, with the sense that you are challenging the machine with what humans are supposed to be best at, ie, word skills. It helps, of course, that even as a board game it's superbly addictive. Good news for Amstrad owners then that Scrabble is at last available on the machines. It's a fine implementation and, because of the Amstrad monitor, it's the clearest of all the versions. The vocabulary of 11,000 words gives you a difficult game at the harder levels. I think a reasonably committed Scrabble player should win more often than not, but never easily. Computer Scrabble has one major additional virtue for kids - if anything is going to persuade your parents to buy a computer this game is it - drag them into a shop and make them play it.

Page créée en 127 millisecondes et consultée 6613 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. |
