ZX Spectrum Penetrator 48K Game Walkthrough

[zapposh]

Just like some others have already posted, this was also my first "real" game after I gave up copying hundreds of lines of code from the game magazines and forgetting something somewhere along the way. Got this for christmas and was about 9 or 10. Really tough game, but played it for months and months and my dad sometimes watched me at it. Great memories.

WOW! This brought back memories. This was the first game I ever played, back in 1984 or so. My parents bought me this as a Christmasgift when I was 6 or 7 years old.. Kodus to the dude trying to get this game for his father.

I use Spectaculator. It's great emulator of Spectrum.

This was my first game. I was 11 but would stay up playing it till 2am (which was really late for me then) when I couldn't keep my eyes open any more. The highest bonus I remember getting was 15,000. lol

Thanks for posting. ;)

Same here, I was 12 but it was not quite my first game; that would maybe be Hungry Horace. One of the very first I played was Psion Flight Simulator which was cool.

My other faves were Jetpac, Centipede, and Manic Miner.

Those were the days. lol :P

LOL! This was one of the first games I ever bought. It cost £5.95.

It was superb. I must have spent months playing it. It also had a great "spectacular" when you beat it. The rockets were superb - thanks Philip!

Penetrator was one of my early faves and is the reason why I find myself here (at 2am in the morning). Oh God...

[madderscientist23]

Wow, this looks very good!  He could sure turn his hand to a variety of different games, this Philip Mitchel bloke

[bvivers]

I remember getting over 1000000 points before I got bored and switched it off.

[OXIMOS]

You need to find a ZX Spectrum Emulator for your computer (Google for it). There are many. There is a link in the information to this video, which will take you to a download of the game.

[wubble78]

Heh.. saw the video jump and the score change there ;)

This was the first game I mastered. It just lets you play until you keel over from exhaustion

[rowanofravara]

Well played, I love the bit at the end, where you masterfully float over the landscape, purging it of the rockets, radar bases and hoving cats of your enemy.

[STUARTSt321]

Loved this game - especially making a custom level for a mate to play that had a bit that was impossible to get through. Lol.

[Kingshymond]

quality game, clocked it many a time, u could even design your own levels !
