                        NAVEZLI NOVYA


(C) KVAZAR



   Time seems ill-hunger program in Gomel,
irrevocably a thing of the past. Almost every week there
something new, and it is not surprising: there is a modem 
"shake-nehochu!", he likes to Minsk, call me, he likes - in 
Grodno, and even in Moscow, benefit from that rebound is not 
willing, would be the money ... Yes, and Local svapperu parcels 
sometimes come - is not life? Here, sweeping the other day 
another pile sent to FloppyNet discs. 

   Hooray! Finally, and pofiksennoe "Mirror" We had (Tnx, 
Wrecker 'Optical Brothers): without protection, broken into 
files, like obezglyuchennoe, but at the same time with the cool 
decorated description. Thanks, guys! From sistemok, I would 
advise to pay attention to superkrutoy kopirovshik 
TR-DOS/MS-DOS, with built-in HOBBET'oy - recoder format from 
ZX-emulator - TRMSHOB. 

   Turning to the review.



                        SEX MINESWEEPER

                      (C) Ufo Group-1997

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

   It would seem that the game market is already pretty often 
littered with such "Consumer goods": it had already been "Magic 
Stripes, Strip Reversi," Sex Xonix "," Fiveteen's "," Hundred 
"," Zx-Stag "... It seems that the time has come stay, but no! 
Again, we offer a "well, very interesting" game in the style of 
"open an image, and then ... Well, in general what you thought 
- naked girls. The game itself - a secondary matter, it is 
possible and even without it, the main women - sit down and 
consider (glubokointellektualnoe employment for people with 
mental disabilities to soil impotence). And even the entire 
disk! Well, straight no words. 

   In short it is the ordinary miner: cleared the entire field 
- looked at the scanned image representative female with a 
minimum of clothing - moved to the next level etc. Picture 
quality is also not shine - all blurry and hazy. Before the 
game you will be offered to enjoy the intro. I do it You 
absolutely do not recommend that - otherwise you'll have to 
plug your ears. This gnarled digitization I have not heard yet 
of any one program. Total score by three and a minus.




                           TNE PUZZLE

                         (C) Taras-1997

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

    Very solidly made a puzzle, which occupies the entire disk.
Must be composed of smaller "building blocks" - complete image.
Very qualitatively elaborated movement of individual blocks: 
blocks can be moved, to impose on the other side without any 
restrictions. You can select three modes of partitioning the 
playing field: 3x4, 6x8, 8h11, respectively, light, medium and 
hard. During the game, continuously decreasing the time. Upon 
completion of the assembly image, the result is written in a 
high scores table to disk. 

    Along with good graphics and lots of pictures
the game has excellent sound, almost entirely
consisting of otsifrovok human voice and songs of famous 
singers. 



                            LEPREKON

                  (C) Omega Hackers Group-1998

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

   Remember "LODE RUNNER"? If yes, then increase the schedule, 
add the conveyors and here's a new toy - "LEPRECON". Although 
if you think not so new. For the first time I encountered a 
similar, on PC-286, in 1992. True graphics there was still 
better, but Spekkovskaya version as a whole looks pretty good - 
except that, movement of the protagonist a little tugging.


   This game is a classic maze style
"Gather your treasures." Our hero has to escape from 
persecution, casually smashing brick walls, collect all the 
bags of gold, and then get to the next level. In this case, 
often have to solve a rather difficult task, such as: how to 
get there one bag and it does not remain immured in the wall.


   The schedule is rather large, relatively well-traced
(Could be better). There is a graphical window interface
menu with a wide settings. There is a built in level editor 
with the ability to record new levels on the disc. 



                         FIELDS OF LOGIC

                  (C) Smokers Hackers Band 1999

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

   Puzzle game, written by the Minsk group SMOKERS / AMD. She
intended for two players who make moves in turn.
The essence of this tchotchke easy to impossible - to build 
figurines blocks and earn points for this. The program has a 
built-in setup. Big minus - managing only two kinds of Sinclair 
joysticks, that at least uncomfortable. Rather unique looks 
initial splash with amusing and digitization animated "monster."




                         KICK DA GAGA

                      (C) AVALON / RUSH '99

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

   Work on this igrulki began in 1997 and
continued intermittently for almost two years. And only 
recently the authors have decided to release their product in 
the world. So, what is the program itself? The first thing that 
catches your eye - great dvuhkolornaya saver drawn Viator'om. 
Next is a small intro with some strange damn (Sorry, but the 
other word I can not find) in the center of the screen and 
traditional credits / hellos. After that, the player gets to 
the menu Management, where he can choose the person / computer 
type joystick. Selecting the menu option - "Start", you find 
yourself in a very unusual level playing field, where driving a 
ball to be lost pounding the ball on your opponent to beat him

to death, and not something he would do something similar with 
you. Graphics in the game itself is small, the game background 
is constantly moving that quickly tires vision. Playability in 
my opinion dangles somewhere near zero. And yet, it's an 
amateur ... ;-) 



                             ORION

                       (C) Proxima-1993

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

   Moldboard space shooter, something that looks like a wide
famous "R-TYPE", that's only the levels are not loaded, but
and enemies throughout the game suffer from monotony. Selection
Weapons limited to two types: plasma gun and wave emitter, but 
the firepower you can build up during the game, hooked, as in 
the R-TYPE extra armament. Graphics and animation pretty cute. 
In a word - I'm happy to play this game, and what you wish for.
