  • Cassette 50 vs Rise Of The RobotsHaving been a Spectrum owner since 1984 I have played some of the best and worse games the machine has to offer, so my question is: Is the Spectrum …

    casette 50 had a coupla interesting games for a ten year old. The skull maze game was ok, and one where you had to guess the color of the pegs. Ski jump provided some entertainment also.

    Rise of the Robots was just a poor fighting game.
