Maze War

You've probably seen lots of versions of this game - you battle it out controlling little tanks on a screen filled with walls. This game has a few extras; when you've bought it, a grave is left behind which explodes when it's shot. There are eight players, either joystick-controlled or looked after by your ST, regular STs use both joystick ports and an adaptor that connects to the printer port.

If you have an STE, you can also use its extra joystick ports on the side resulting in eight human players and a truly confusing time for all. The graphics are on the small side, and things a tad jerky, but it comes into its own when there's a few of you blasting the hell out of each other.

The STE has extra bits and bobs - it's good to see them getting used.
