  • Your most played Speccy game?What Spectrum game did you play more than any other? For me it's got to be Back 2 Skool or Cyclone.

    Probably Quazatron. I got a wee bit obsessed with it to be honest. I drew my own comic of it and everything :D

    Honourable mentions for Target Renegade, R-Type, Back to Skool, Dark Sceptre, and The Hobbit.
