TLL was great, just far too hard

Enjoyed TLL as well. This is more accessible though.

Still play this game now. I think we got it free with our Speccy in 85'. Certainly one of the best games for the 48k. Booty and Monty Mole were classics. Bruce Lee was good but alot better on the Atari 800XL.

I loved this game

[funkyjunkyjai]

1 of my fave games for the speccy.

I've downloaded Knight Lore, Great Escape, Head Over Heels, Dizzy 3 (I think) and Fairlight, I'll give them a go tonight

I Just play them all on a spectrumDS emulator so it's not bad!

I always use keys in all the games. I haven't played TLL for years though. Whether to go high and risk crashing into an aircraft or go low and crash into a house. You can't win really.

I was always a big fan of 3d Isometric games but they take a lot of playing. Batman, Knight Lore, The Great Escape, Head Over Heels and Fairlight (really tough). Booty, Bruce Lee or any of the Dizzy arcade/adventure games.

It's funny you should mention TLL, I just put it on my emulator yesterday, it took me ages to figure out how to lift off, the plane doesn't descend either for me, may be I should use the keys instead?

Yep I always use the map here for Cyclone! My trouble is I use it too much and do not keep an eye for oncoming planes lol

Any other games you recommend? Cyclone was always one of my favs, a long with ms pac man, nodes of yesod, indi temple of doom, trashman, manic miner etc
