Cartoon Collection

That Dizzy's Excellent Adventures thingie isn't the only Chrimbo compo from the Codies kids. There's another five game £10 cassette package also lurking there on the shelves. The Cartoon Collection consists of these five games:

Dizzy - the original game featuring that egg chappie. A bit primitive compared to later adventures, but still something of a collectors' item (though you've probably already collected it).

Little Puff - C64 and Speccy owners get something to do with elephants. We get this slightly wrinklie Quattro Cartoon resident. Guide your little dragon home.

Slightly Magic - More dragons, and some wizardy things too.

Spike in Transilvania - See review elsewhere this issue.

Seymour Goes To Hollywood - (Reviewed in AA74) One of the best games of the year, and a new hero who's going to steal Dizzy's crown (remember - you read it here first).

Verdict

Five arcade adventure cute-'em-ups. Four average, one brilliant.
