Title: Ground Hog (£12)
Highly original game where you must lay down multiple paths across time that don't crash into each other. Interesting but soon becomes very annoying to play due to the time limit and need to move precisely and have an amazing memory! Very simple graphics

Type: Puzzle
Needs: OS 2: No   OS 3: Yes   RPC: Yes   SA: Yes

Title: Guile (£30)
Cross between Zarch and Elite, that was far too fiddly and difficult to control! A nice idea and quite well presented. Heavily promoted, but failed to sell I suspect.

Type: Zarch (aka Virus)
Needs: OS 2: Yes   OS 3: Yes   RPC: Yes   SA: Yes

Title: Hamsters
Great fun. Squelch all the poor little animals to death. Makes your eyes go funny after a bit, however! Sadly only available as part of a four-game compilation, Aries.

Title: Heimdall
Whether or not you like this action-based RPG depends on your taste in RPGs. A strange mouse-based combat system makes this game completely reliant on you having a fully functioning mouse (although it probably won't be by the time you finish with this game), and the game implementation - particularly of the object selection screen during exploration - is very bad at times, handicapping the game so much that it becomes immensely tedious to play. Sound is poor, too, with annoyingly loud footsteps everywhere you go. Some nice graphics, however.

Title: Here With the Clues
Strange game where you are given a set of documents and clues and need to solve a mystery. Once you've played it once there isn't much to make you come back to it. More of a curiosity, really.
