Top Ten

Good grief! - I hadn't realised how hard it was to work out a
Top Ten of my own until I sat down to do it. Certain games leap
out at you, begging to be included but in other cases I wavered.
Excluding the PC games Zork Zero and Spellcasting which would be
up at the top if we were counting PC games too, here's my final,
final choice....Sue

1. Beyond Zork       - Great puzzles and atmosphere.
2. Demon's Winter    - The only RPG I have finished so far. 
                       It took 8 months and I loved it!
3. Enchanter         - I enjoy games with magic in 'em.
4. Ingrid's Back     - I was torn between this and Gnome Ranger.
                       Okay, it's a bit cute but it was good fun.
5. Manhunter San Francisco - Just beat Police Quest 1 into the list.
                       Nice to have the option of easy arcade 
                       sequences.
6. Sleeping Gods Lie - Fun to map and play. Arcade bits easy too.

7. Ermm... Lurking Horror  - Just beat Trinity. An excellent
                       example of a text game that would have
                       been ruined by including graphics.
8. Jade Stone        - I wish Linda would decide to convert more
                       of her Spectrum games to the ST. 
9. Cortizone         - Only just finished it but I was impressed
                       enough to include it.
10. Wizard's Tower   - Might only be PD but it was an excellent
                       first effort from a new author.
