 The Old Robber from Sherwood Forest
I've already turned over the right thing in my grave two hundred times -
Xia - so many films, games have been made about him,
books have been written. A company with a pretentious "penguin"
"skim" name designed another
game about Robin Hood.                       
So, you control a certain the guy who represents something in between a homeless person and a metalhead. running among all the bushes and trees ev, he collects all kinds of flowers, quivers with arrows and
wreaths (pessimist). B Shastany through the wilds of Sherwood forest they will tell you company of soldiers with kind faces and arba-
years that need deep- sew with a club, boars-mytah- you are a mixture of a ram and a hedgehog, which can be jammed with something useless. Besides these non- nice comrades in the forest an old grandfather lives in
ven (from the word “grass”, not “poisoning”) If you poke your head into it, it will rise Hobut your health. Don't hit him with a stick necessary, in relation to this sadistic act- he is completely indifferent. How much if you wouldn't hit his stupid head, he will continue to walk around his sha- Lasha with a moronic-intelligent look.Where- then a witch lives in the bushes, collecting herbarium. If you catch her eye, she confiscates from you with such difficulty the early flowers and teleports to some
castle. You can also meet men in the forest ka accompanied by a couplebody guards.If kill them, then this strange guy is frightened ha loses two wallets with lava and runs away Yes, developing an incredible for its complex- tion speed. THUNDERCATS
The game starts with original application you - Tandpa where- then he stuck his eye (probably insert), a find cannot. You must we will help him. By- after a short period of time nipulation with selection joystick rom, we let's find out what the eye communized by a certain Eternal Mumiy, by nickname either Mum- pa, or Mym-pa - I don’t remember exactly. why does he need ste- cursed eye - not- I see. Clicking on fire for- let's start the game and we evaluate the critical with an eco- ran.In the middle you
you see yourself with a sword in your hands, standing near some kind of pillar. At the top of the screen all sorts of beautiful pictures are drawn, in the lower it contains various useless information, for example measures: current weapon, time allotted for passing this level, number of lives, arrow pointer - which way to go reap
Looking around, we discover many gestation of various evil spirits: big-nosed men- ki, balls, different batscolors in assortment ets. In a word, the game is stupid waving a knife (or whatever it is he has) there?) and reaching the end of the level. If you meet the time allotted for the passage - completion of one stage, you will be awarded a bonus, well, if not, then at the top instead of beautiful ones a painted man will appear in the pictures, with terribly happy expression of the muzzle, which with all his appearance he declares: “Bulls off for you, pa- pehb, with extra points!" Every three or four levels the evil Mummies noxu- pranks one of your friends who, in in principle, we need to save, but this may not be possible do. An ambush awaits when you are lucky You will successfully complete the 14th stage. Unexpectedly for you they will declare that you have neutralized the Mummy and found Tundra's eye (or whatever it is called?). However, neither Tundra himself, never showed you an eye- terrible. Bummer. SKATEBALL Original sports game. Mix of football la, hockey and gopovskaya showdown. The whole point consists of taking the ball away from the opponent (by any means) and scoring this ball at his own gate. The biggest joke is that you will play on ice and in skates.Fighting techniques do not boast variety - these are various pushes and a kick with a skate to the po- the same enemy. Before you start playing, you have the option the ability to recruit your own team (in principle, you can also use an already assembled computer ter), select a control (please ask without vulgarities and politics - I'm talking about joysticks - ki!), name your team, select a game against the computer or against your knowledge komoro... The first level is the easiest, just xok- Key pad. And then they appear all sorts of troubles designed to complicate life a simple Spectrum gamer.To some kind of tum- ba in the middle of the field does not give direct access to the goal break through, then what? A at higher levels already electric shockers and pits with spikes. True one thing pleases - the enemy can go there nod... LOTUS ESPRIT TURBO CHALLENGE As you may have guessed by the name, nyu, this is a race on LOTUS ES cars PRIT. Fancy toy - three fucken techno-dance-shit melodies for AY, three levels- no complexity, automatic transmission dachas and, what’s coolest - the AUTO AC function -CELERATE, i.e. now you won't need everything time to push forward so that the car doesn’t spin mozilas. The program itself will accelerate the car to the limit, and if you are forced to slow down, don't pull the joystick towards you, it's just pointless useful. The FIRE button works as a brake. The movement of the car relative to rivals and the roads are very smooth. To make it easier without the hard work of the user stands on the sidelines direction indicators. But, as in any cool toy, it also has its drawbacks - ki. If you drive onto a hill, then don't you see neither the road nor the cars of your rivals - just your car and the blue sky with birds kami. A similar situation will arise when descent from this elevation, just watch you won't be on the birds, but on the pebbles horn. So the probability of driving onto the side of the road is well, or the opponent’s car is very high... What the hell, that's creepy. TNE FLINTSTONES (C) HANNA-BARBERA 1988 Another computer gem about heroes from becthoro cartoon - prehistoric the Flintstone family. The game consists of two levels. Levelthe first one is painting the walls. on ch. hero, Wilma, leaving for work gives His task is to paint the wall. It seemed what could be simpler? But, on your responsibility Sometimes my little daughter remains at home. This unsympathetic child likes to get out of his cribs and paint on the freshly painted all sorts of faces on the wall. To the newly minted painter I have to catch this girl and put her down back to bed, but as soon as he takes her on your hands, a new trouble happens - a brush, Feeling free, he begins to jump wildly all over the room. It takes drudgery to catch the brush valuable time, which, by the way, is in the program limited. If you, despite all the failures and rejections, good luck, you will have time to finish the construction work before the missus arrives, then get to the next level - you, with your you're going to the bowling alley with your friend Barney. However, a bummer will await you on the road - from- a car wheel falls off. How to attach it back - I don’t know. However, this is a nonpa- bumoe - if you want to enjoy the game in skittles, select the item "Tpehu-" in the menu Level at 2" and enjoy. GHOULS AND GHOSTS And some guy was thrown on the nightcemetery. And there... your mother! Grannies from mo-
gils with scythes are climbing, birds chicks fly to death pecking. A man out of all the ammunition, one penknife. Here he throws himself at them. And in babus, and birds, and generally everything. True, some kind people left among the
gil and crypts weapons - magical fire, all sorts of axes... My uncle is picking them up and uses it. And even between the graves there are different boxes. A guy shot at one, and from there - some type in a cylinder. This type with hands like a sew- poured, stirred... Our hero turned into a goose and dragged on. Well, at least for a little while. Damn, this guy walks around throwing knives and swears at all hackers for cheating mode was not inserted into the untimely death he was doomed.
NAVY S.E.A.L. Somehow the Americans decided to be a big bastard arrange for “Saddam’s friend.” They took it and threw it At night, boxes with explosives are sent to his palace. Only now there was a minor bummer - or the invoices were mixed up, or the storekeeper didn’t I was sober - in a word, they forgot about the boxes Screw on the fuses. How did you find out about this a superhero locksmith was dispatched with a bag com of clock mechanisms to the boxes of their npukpy- chivat. But the Arabs didn’t understand and thought that this is "friend Zhirik" humanitarian aid They locked him down and put guards near the bombs. This locksmith came to the palace - a bag on shoulder, bottle in his bosom, machine gun in hand. He sees that the box needs to be attached to the fuse, and next to me is an evil uncle with a beard. Well, you're a man - drank, loaded the machine and went to repair pa- bots are forced to execute. The Arabs shoot and kill, but he doesn’t care - with bubble palenki got this cheat mode- Xia... KINGS BOUNTY In ancient times, in the dark middle- kobbe once upon a time there lived a demon. Nobodyhe didn't touch I didn’t run into anyone, I walked around calmly according to his possessions. But here is a cruel king found out about that demon and decided no matter what no matter what, burn him at the stake. Caught the king on the road of the honest knight, said tell him a fairy tale about the fact that this monster stole the family scepter and sent the knight fight against a demon. The poor guy wandered around matepukam, cursed profusely and attacked the army biral.Why did you swear? Yes, because samoder- the guy whispered in the warrior’s ear, like, if you can't kill a demon in 900 days, I'll I will hand myself over to the inquisitors and they will be on recipes from the "Witches Hammer" are tested for you - vat. So, this poor fellow is walking through the forests let the seas gather a great army.A warriors, I must say, are strange. Trolls are not trolls, and werewolves are some kind of disguises - washed, Cyclopes like Stakhanovites hammer- they wave, the natives are not really natives- tsy,a students from Nigeria. So how is it here order to fight, even if the magic is glitchy Naya - do you want to materialize in one city? to appear, but appear in another. In short, mu- he suffered, suffered and found a joke alone interesting - if there were more "Stops" Time" and "Quasi-Authority" to gain and from continent to continent not by boat, a transitions to a castle or city travel- Well, then there’s no time to waste and soak it anyone you want... I got there in such a way - kolami good knightdemon, killed not- lucky and got that scepter. Yes, don’t replace it thought that it was a fake, but the real one was from the the role was collecting dust under my pillow... So let’s honor memory of the poor demon with a minute of silence... SUMMARY LIST OF SUBJECTS: 1.Simply terrible syntactic construction such designs. For example, "The army cannot contain more than 5 warriors" or even better, "You can take 0 more MAGIC." If so for that matter, it’s not “magic”, but “spell- niy". 2.If the authority exceeds 65535, which is all ma possible when using a spell "Quasi-authority", then all the fighters will leave- under control. 3. The graphics are simply a miracle, considering the fact that It was painted by two artists. Trolls look alike like wolves, the knight on the screensaver looks like a pa- ralitika, and what sticks out of his cano- ha... well, let's not talk... Cartoon at the end of the game no worse - a picture with a ring- horum as a knight, a symbolic chessboard destroy the casket and the crown, although it is written that you found the scepter... NARC Once upon a time there was a little boy. He went One day he was getting vodka, and a drug dealer came towards him hired. They stopped the boy and he had the money taken away. The boy was offended that he was with his friends I couldn’t get drunk, I went home and took machine gun with an under-barrel grenade launcher and yes- let's kill the narcs. Walks the streets, otctpe- kills the sick - like a grenade launcher stuck for children, pieces of meat remain from a drug addict. I went he walked and looked at the meeting of a pack of dogs runs. Well, without hesitation he follows them out under-barrel... Like a grenade exploded the dogs got scared, cowered and went home fled. And the boy went on to shoot the drug addicts - fuck...
