Spectrum Arcade at 30cms

The Spectrum arcade, at 30cms.net.
These games run at the size of the screen shots, in a Java applet.
Make sure Java works ok in your browser, before you give me any of that "it don't work" crap!
Once the game has loaded, click on the applet to set the focus, then try and work out the keys!!!

Give the applets a chance to load!!!

A game for tossers.

If you thought that a good helicopter sim would be impossible on the Spectrum - you'd be right.

One of the Ultimate classics.

Odd title, odd game.

Attack of the Star Wars clones.

Miner Willy back from the dead.

Corny space game.

Early motorcycle sim. Surprisingly playable!

Unfeasably hard game.

Adventure Quest

Yawnorama type-in nonsense.

The first of the backflipping egg series.

JSW clone with mild appeal.

A trail. In africa.

More egg based shizzle.

Good moon buggy game.

Piss poor game.

Stretching the appeal of this stoopid egg.

Raid Over Moscow

Before it was called "Raid". Hardest bit is getting the planes out the hanger.

Another helicopter sim. Maddening.

Enough egg already.

Pacman in drag during a gay phase.

This was feeble even at the time.

Average platformer.

Forerunner of a good NES game.

Bit like Niteshade. Popular in it's day.

Sequeal to average platformer.

Milking a tired genre.

Sequel to above. Not bad(ish)

It is enduring, I'll give it that.

Has a silent "S" at the start.

Dopeness from 1982. Pushes the speccy more than many other games did.

Way of the Exploding Fist

Karate game with a wank title.

Good game with unfortunate "sex toy" title.

All good. PSX version is best.

Way of the Exploding Fist 2

More wank innuendo.

Copy of Galaxians. Crapola.

Dope multi screened baffling game.

One step up from Space Invaders.

Some guy in PJ's wandering about. He'll get arrested.

AufWiedersehn Monty

More Mole-ness.

If there's something strange, and it don't look good - it's Ghostbusters.

Early version of arcade classic.

That pyjama guy fucking about with cars.

Woeful piss poor pacman copy. It "bites".

Fuck disneyworld. This rollercoaster ride is one you won't forget.

Shoot your teacher in the head with a catapult.

Unplayable - like Marble Madness

Poke a wild pig with your sword.

The gay blade.

3 feet high the door, and 2 may walk abreast.

Muff diver after the jewels.

Good platformer.

Dreadful game.

Had it's moments.

Top view BMX racing. Lame.

Top sport game. "RUB END".

Vector graphics, poorly done.

More top view BMX shizzle.

Good sequel to best speccy game.

TerrorDaktil 4D

WoooOOOoo. 4D eh?

Good game. Well it was good in 1987.

Looked good, but proved too hard.

Tornado Low Level

Best of the speccy flying games.

As the title suggests - this game is arse.

Addictive and simple - perfect for this platform.

Stoopid driving nonsense.

Dope game.

One of the best speccy games.

Frustrating jumping action. If you stay on the rope too long, a bit shit falls on you.

Frank "he's behind you" Bruno gets pasted on screen. For a change.

Sequel with less appeal that original.

Val Doonican in his first adventure role.

Bugaboo the Flea

Good game. Super hard.

Play this whilst wearing no pants,

Mildly appealing winter sports.

Oh my,

Sub average Ultimate game.

Slightly less appealing that original.
