I'd say the best isometric 3D game on the Spectrum is Fairlight.

You can say it, but you'd be wrong. Fairlight is crap. FACT. :P Even Sweevo's World is more playable and that's saying something....

Cool !

As others said this game is climatic, you don't get often this kind of graphics in Spectrum games.

This seems also to be the first Mojon game with ability to shoot the monsters, am I right? It gives a new level of fun.

Sgt. Helmet Zero also had ability to shoot, but it was much less playable (my opinion) because of character-based movements.

Manic Miner - the first Spectrum game I bought (a month before I even got my Speccy!).

Probably responsible (together with Atic Atac & Jetpac) for shifting a massive proportion of those Spectrums in the run up to Xmas 1983.

It's got to be... Jet Pac. Quite possibly the first original game of arcade quality for the Spectrum.

Elite and The Sentinel are great but, to be honest, I prefer the BBC Micro version. Head Over Heels looks at its best on the Amstrad CPC too.

I really think they are marmite sorts of games, BUT great escape.. time stood still and gun fright I was told would interest me

Stonkers for me, ahead of it's time and still playable today if it a bit easy.

Was Stonkers the first commercial game to ship with a game crashing bug?
