   Since the beginning of last month, our city was visited by a 
very respectable number of electronic publications, including 
magazines were: "ZX-FORMAT-8", "FORUM-4", "DEVA VU-5," the 
newspaper: "NICRON 100-105", "OPTRON-21" and many others. 
Moscow "Nikron" published detailed report on prohdivshem 22 
August in the Russian capital, International Festival of 
Computer Art - "FunTop-98" direct participant, who was, and 
your humble servant. In addition, the 104 edition of the 
Nikrona You can find out what ended with the past history of 
hearing about the alleged Sir Clive Sinclair's suicide - the 
father of our computer. Magazine "FORUM", will be useful to 
those who try their hand at coding as there is a detailed 
analysis of tens of assembler procedures, tips, experienced 
programmers, practical implementation of various effects, etc.


   And now I let myself go to the review game programs.



                       "ESCAPE TO HARHAN"

                 (C) Air 'Scandall Jackson 1998

               ----------------------------------

   Bright representative of the domestic "dizzepodobnyh" 
adventyurnyh quests. You control an alien with a strange funny

nickname "Cruz" (the authors probably fans of Santa Barbara)
which crashed on the planet, obviously hostile nature
the hungry natives, jumping on the beach ...

   The game is very similar to the "Winnie the Pooh" and 
"48-irons, and all fans of this genre have in taste.




                    "HOMER SIMPSON IN RUSSIA

                   (C) Mr.GLUK 'Company in 1998

                 -----------------------------

   If you remember the demo of the game "Paradize Lost", then 
immediately understand the essence of that rpg, as the 
interface are very similar. The same view from the top, the 
replica at the bottom of the screen, a set of objects. And if 
You are lucky enough to have machines with 256K or more memory, 
we can will enjoy quality sound digitization,

Accompanying some of the plays. True action to
objects are not animated, but then just stand
inimitable antics of the main character.

   In short the essence of the game is: a hero of popular 
cartoon series: "Simpson Family", namely, the venerable head of 
the family of Homer Simpson should "go there - I do not know 
where to find it - I do not know that ". The program 
communicates with you in Russian, arched considerable amount of 
humor. 

   Conclusion: I strongly advise to buy, you will not regret.

after a series of demos full version of "Golovobola. Game
may be simultaneously attributed as a sports and arcade to
genre. At first glance it is a regular volleyball, but if you 
play this game longer becomes clear - it's not that simple. Are

toys, as in any volleyball trivial - an opponent to score
goal, and you can play like a computer, and with a partner.
The game has a lot of shells: balls, bombs, etc.
Excellent animation and a pleasant soundtrack, coupled with
a huge number of settings (including support for music
map "General Sound"), will not leave you indifferent.



                        "MASTER OF MAGIC"
