Great work! Loved reading the homebrew section and Golden Axe review! And damn, Mystic Formula looks stunning!

Just finished reading it as well. Loved the Golden Axe review, but hated it too since it was so true. The potential... :(

This issue made me lol lots.  I love the little captions for the screenshots.  You've got a very entertaining writing style.

the homebrew section is witty, just like I like it.  It's also chock full of stuff.  I guess you don't really notice how much there is til it is all in one spot.

These magazines need to be published and mailed to all of us! :D

Cool :D But... do you plan to keep doing the Speccy issues? I'm really looking forward to more of those (have a soft spot for the system even though I've never owned one).

Yes, I'll alternate to make sure I keep them up.

your next spectrum one should cover Kayleth.

Hmm, adventures are difficult to review. I'll have to think about that one.

well, I figure it would be a few paragraphs of you bitching about how you cant get past the first screen, as wittily as possible, complete with all the ideas you tried.

:) lol

I had considered an adventure section before, and it would be very much like you describe. It was going to be called 'Adventures I Gave Up On After 5 Minutes' or something like that. Maybe I should actually do it.

Post by: Arkhan on February 06, 2012, 07:08:07 AM
I think you should.

Do "The Pawn"  also.

If you get to the monk and type Kill Monk

you f*ckin' get Chuck norris'd

Heh I used to have the Pawn on the Speccy. Oh, and I just played Kayleth and got off the first screen on the first try.

You want a hard adventure, try The Incredible Hulk.

hulk smash ---> win ?

If only. It's one of those stupid adventure that you have to get the wording exactly right to progress.
