Competition

The response to last issue's competition, naming the adventure 
that the screenshot came from, wasn't particularly great - a 
total of 3 entries was received! Unfortunately, no-one got it 
right. The screenshot was from Jinxter (the bridge). 

Am I downhearted? Am I going to drop competitions? No, sorry, 
you don't get off that easily! In fact this time, there are two 
competitions. The closing date for both is 15th February 1990.

Compo 1:

The first one is another graphics competition where I have taken
pictures of six characters from Sierra games and want you to tell
me who the characters are. Simple, huh? The first correct answer
pulled out of my poor old straw hat (which didn't get used last 
time) will win not one but ..... TWO free issues of SynTax as last
issue's prize has been carried over. You'll find the competition
picture in the Screenshots section.

Compo 2:

The prize for the second competition is not one .... not two ....
but THREE free issues of Spellbreaker! kindly donated by Mike
Brailsford (cheers, Mike!) It's another easy one so I am hoping 
for loads of correct answers.

Each of the following list of questions or phrases will give 
you the title of an ST adventure. The first letters of each answer,
when listed, will give the name of a well-known adventure series.
Just send in the list of adventure names and the resulting final
title and the first one out of the hat (etc etc) will win the
Spellbreaker! issues. All the adventures have been mentioned in
the ST Adventure List at some time or other and to make entering
the compos easier, there's an entry form on the last page for you 
to printout and complete. 

Right, here they come:


1. In which game would you find a glow spell written at the 
   entrance to a mountain? 
2. This young lady returned and caused even more havoc!
3. Infocom brought out a game that was really "different" - but
   no-one could make head or tail of it.
4. Try to make your fortune in this game and learn a bit of
   history at the same time.
5. If I dropped a clock, what might I end up with?
6. A pair of RPGs was produced for certain computers, but only 
   the second one appeared on the ST.
7. In which game would you find spider cider?
8. A county or a spaceship?
9. The second game to feature Floyd.
10. This game featured a strange land where guitar picks were used
    as the local currency. 

Winners who are already subscribers to either magazine will have 
their free issues added onto their subscription.
