Although the title gives little away, this program plays a rather mean game of Reversi. This is a board game in which you place counters on a squared board and then try to change all your opponent's counters into your colour. It is very simple to learn yet difficult to master. The instructions given arc entirely on screen, the cassette insert just contains loading instructions and I think that new players will find this a little less than adequate. The problem of difficulty is compounded by the computer setting the level of skill that it will play in the first game, the player having no control at all over this. I found that at the Moderate level it plays a good game, with a great deal of the positional and strategical intelligence that makes this game quite addictive. The biggest disappointment is the graphics, which can only be described as rather sparse and basic. A good game but with very few of the touches of quality that I would expect for this price.

Page créée en 548 millisecondes et consultée 1845 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. |
