A pretty good version of darts, although it is a little easy to play. The graphics are quite neat and it is a shame that you can only play against another human and not a computer opponent.

I really hate this game, particularly as I can't see how you could ever complete it. It is a really bad game, you are in control of a circle of ant-matter, and have to avoid the space bouncers. The graphics are appaling, and it is so easy to not get in the way of the Space Bouncers it is unbelievable. I can't see how anyone would have bought this.

The ORIGINAL platform game on the Beeb. This was a great game, I hope you have it in your collection! The aim was simple, collect the eggs and bird seed, whilst dodging the ostriches! Also, you had to negotiate gaps, holes, ladders and lifts (very awkward to use). If you got far enough, I seem to remember the ostriches being replaced by a giant bird which roamed around the screen. A true classic.

A fairly good game, for A&F anyway, this is entertaining, you must avoid the submarines missiles whilst shooting them and rescuing stranded people. The graphics are nicely put together, it is really a very playable, and addictive game.

A nice 3d shoot-em-up. At first I thought it was just like Elite, but you soon notice that it is played on a much simpler level. You just have to shoot the invaders which come towards your ship, it is not exactly brilliant, but worth a few plays. One of their better games, but still not as good as Chuckie Egg.

The worst version of Frogger that I've ever seen, it really is appaling, the graphics are really slow, they look horrible, and it is way too difficult. The keyboard hardly responds to your movements unless you release press the key down for a long time. Play Hopper by Acornsoft instead.

A pretty dull text adventure game in which you have to explore the haunted abbey. It isn't very original, and although it isn't exactly a huge game still manages to be slow at changing between locations. At times though it is worth playing, and I would especially reccommend it if you like this kind of game, but there are better representatives of the genre than this.

Simple text adventure in which you have to enter the castle in order to save the Princess, its not very original, and very simple - a handful of words to describe each room and a simple two word parser. One of the early text adventures for the Beeb.

The Electron version of Planes.

A very enjoyable game in which you control a canoe, and have to manouveur through a river, against its current, around rocks, and all the time you have to invade the river monsters which get in the way. The graphics are nice, and the gameplay is really good, you win each level by collecting the five shields. The current of the water is done really well, and it makes a great addition to your collection.

Terrible Cricket game, mainly played in a low-res mode, you don't actually get to do much playing, you just have to specify who is on your team, and how you want them to play. It is very difficult to understand the layout of the screen, and I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy!

A simple game, you are placed on a grid of different sized sqaures, with a monster chasing you, you have to go over every line on the screen, filling the boxes and gaining the points. When you have filled in all the squares you advance to the next level. It is quite enjoyable, and one of their better games, but not the best, that would have to be Chuckie Egg.

Another terrible game in which you have to collect Coins to exit the pharoahs tomb. I really don't see the point of this game, it is not even fun, all you have to do is guide a cursor round a screen full of coins. Probably one of their worst games, it does nothing to change the reputation of A&F Software being a one-hit wonder.

A simple shoot-em-up, just like space invaders except for the fact that you shoot planes instead of aliens. Nothing very inspiring, just a bog standard shoot em up. The graphics are simple low-res, and they don't really move smoothly enough for my liking.

Simple text adventure game in which you, the professor have to find a way to get yourself back to normal size after being mysteriously shrunken! Its not the most original of ideas and the parser is simple two word stuff, however its quite detailed and fun to play.

Simple and completely text based RPG. Its not very interesting, you move from place to place on the map fighting Orcs and the like, pretty standard fare but it's oh so boring.

A Mode 7 version of the old puzzle with the hoops and the rings, it is enjoyable in a brain numbing sort of way, if you like puzzles, then this is the classic. You can't really go wrong with a game like this, although it is questionable how long you could actually play it for without being bored!
