Well, where can I start, it’s been a long ride, Andy was very kind enough to send over various beta versions and then a full version of Temple of Lost Souls, and we spent some good time before release day, play testing the game and discussing ideas and such. Fortunately we found no bugs, and now the game has been…
“Revenge is best served cold”. Or in this case, a Yar. A Yar? What on earth?! Allow the elaboration of one of the most successful video games released on the Atari. Your character, a flying insectoid being known as a Yar, is set the task of destroying the Quotile entity, protected by a cellular shield which rotates around its presence. This…
As some of you will remember, not long ago I got myself a Commodore VIC-20. This was a new one on me, having previously only dipped a thruster into the Commodore Galaxy via the C64 and the Amiga. But I do love my early 8-bits…. Well, I can tell you that I continue to be impressed! The VIC-20 doesn’t have…

I have played a fair few games in my time, but in all honesty, nothing has really stood out for me as far as amazing sports games go. However there is always a first time and this particular title for one reason or another stuck with me during my childhood and I couldn’t stop playing it. I think the first…
Hello.. I’m Flood!Not the most well known game from EA, Quiffy is a little green dude (What exactly is he? Starfish, Mutant Frog?) who is on a mission to clear his world of litter that someone has thoughtlessly left lying around. Quiffy also has to switch off the leaky taps on each level to stop the water gathering below, rising…
Clueless Gamer coming at you once again, I know it’s been a while, but the real life train seems to keep trucking through the Clueless Household of late. But rest assured I am back. Today I’m continuing my plunge into the world of awful carts on the NES with a look at Chubby Cherub. Admittedly, I never played this game, and…
Clueless Gamer coming at you once again for a look at another revered and hated video game – Renegade – which pops in the charts at #16 on Cracked.com’s List of the 20 Worst NES titles of all time. My first thought on researching this game was – why is it on a bad list? It has action, fighting, suspense,…
Clueless Gamer coming at you once again with my review of Hudson Hawk – which Cracked Writer Seanbaby placed at number 17 on the worst games for the NES. When you make a movie there are elements you need – good actors, a decent screenplay, plot, emotional connection, and I forgot the fifth element… Hudson Hawk was an “ok” movie made…
A reflection on a new machine in my life; the Commodore VIC-20. All Commodore machines have always held an elusive, golden glow for me. Back in the 80’s I had an Acorn Electron from 1983 onwards, and still have that little beauty now. As Acornified as I was, and still am, I hankered after a C64. Then, towards the late…
