Title: Elite Gold Edition **** (£40)
Port of the classic BBC game adds some features but fails to deliver the same addictive experience as the original. A beeping docking computer and ship movement which continually changes speed as the number of ships on screen increases and decreases make this game annoying. Still a classic game, but I prefer the original. Quadrupling the number of kills required in this version makes the game pathetically tedious.

Title: Emotions ***** (£19.95)
Brilliantly designed and extremely amusing cartoon platform game. Add £1 P+P if ordering direct by mail. 1Mb or more of VRAM is recommended.

Title: Enter the Realm *** (£26)
Only newer version works on RISC OS 3.1 and above. Lovely graphics and parallax scrolling aren't done justice by crippling lack of control over main character and incredibly slow loading times (and no harddisc installation is allowed).

Title: Fervour **** (£25)
Really quite good game where you guide a ball down a racing track which scrolls from the screen out towards you, with different coloured tiles having different effects on the ball. Nicely tuned so that it's fun to play.
