The game is a unique futuristic sport which has been compared variously to pinball, the board game Crossfire and shove ha'penny. The player controls a cursor that can fire a stream of small balls. These are used to direct a puck across a court to score a goal. In the two-player game, this is hindered by your opponent aiming for the opposite goal. In the single-player game, a form of gravity is the opposition.

Follows the base ruleset of beach volleyball. Two teams of two players each trying to score by making the ball land inside the opponents half of the court. First team reaching seven points within six minutes wins and head to another of the eight countries. At five minutes of play, the music changes to a different tune to indicate the player to hurry up. If the player reach the six minutes limit, the player lose the game even if the player are ahead in points. One or two player at once can play the game, but tournament mode is
only available for single player. In singe player mode the player will be joined by an AI controlled player. To help the human player a flickering blue cursor on the ground will indicate where the ball will be landing.

With a table in the majority of good pubs pool is a very popular game. It's quick and doesn't keep you tied lo the table for over an hour like snooker can, and a lot easier due to the size of the balls and table. But this is Billiards II I hear you say! Well, in this game as well as getting two billiards games to try your hand at, there's also two pool games (numbered and normal league pool) and two Q-ball variations. Each game puts you on the end of the cue, and it's your choice to whether you play from an overhead or solid
3-D view of the table. Ball control is also available by selecting where you cue the white. Rest assured either way will prove a challenge with only the most skillful players potting the balls.

This is an overhead-viewed racing game similar in style to Super Sprint. There are 7 courses of increasing difficulty, incorporating ramps and bumps which significantly affect the bike's handling. Each course has a time limit you must complete 3 laps of the course within, or it's game over. The further inside the time limit you are, the more points you score. There's a computer opponent, but the scoring isn't affected by whether you beat him just so long as you qualify. There is a two-player mode. A unique feature at the time is the action replay, which can be viewed in slow motion.
RATING (7-10)
Letter E
The game's top-down perspective is very uninspiring... mostly because every player looks the same, and their huge, bloated heads makes it very hard to see what they're doing with the ball. Poor control scheme and an even poorer AI (who is usually a walkover most of the time) add to the below average quality.

ICW Wrestling is a wrestling game with four fictional wrestlers: Lance DoGood, Ivan Trotsky, Kai-Leung Kahn and "The Bruiser". The former three can be chosen as playing character and the goal is to win in a three-fight competition, "The Bruiser" being the final fight. The game features various moves which are also used in real wrestling. Which one is used depends on the joystick movements as well as the set mode
either boxing and wrestling. The former has standard moves and is used to bring the opponent's energy down. Then he is suitable to try a wrestling move, e.g. a Suplex or a PowerSlam.

Despite being an accurate and serious simulation of the sport, MacLean's irreverent sense of humor was prominent throughout. The sound effect used for a successful pot was a resounding "pop" and numerous animations provided comic relief should a player take more than a few seconds to shoot. Balls would sprout eyeballs and arms, making faces at the player or holding up signs that read "Get on with it!" and such.

Three karateka fight against each other on a beach, trying to be the first to score six points. After every two rounds, there is a bonus game which is either deflecting bouncing balls or kicking away bombs.

With Kick Off the ball did not stick to the player's feet but instead was realistically kicked ahead from the players, in a manner similar to that of Nintendo's Soccer, released in 1985 on the NES. This added a degree of difficulty and skill requirement at the same time. Other attributes, such as action replays, players with different characteristics, different tactics, fouls, yellow cards, red cards, injuries, injury time and various referees with different moods also featured.
RATING (9-10)
In 1990, Kick Off 2 was released by Anco. Kick Off 2 retains the pace and accuracy of Kick Off, with a full size multi directional scrolling pitch and the players, markings, goals etc., in correct proportions. Both teams play the game strictly according to tactics. Players move into position to receive passes and gain possession. The ball, as in real game, travels ahead of the player.

RATING (7-10)
Gameplay consists of simulated downhill skiing of increasing difficulty. Players can race against each other or against the computer. The slope must be completed passing through all of the checkpoints and within a time limit. The game is viewed in overhead isometric 3D perspective. The game screen always tracks the leading contestant, so if a player falls too far behind he will lose sight of his skier. However, an icon map in the corner of the screen shows the locations of both players and the checkpoints, enabling a skilled player to still complete the race.

The difference between Sensible Soccer and other popular football games of the time was that it used a birds eye view, but not from directly above. There was a slight sense of perspective looking up the pitch which enabled you to see more of the game and therefore gave it a unique viewpoint. The overall presentation graphically is simple and stripped back and the player sprites are small. This adds a uniqueness visually but
also means it can play at a really smooth and fast pace.
RATING (9-10)
The game is played by two teams on an enclosed court with a goal at each end, similar to that of ice hockey or five-a-side football. The court contains fixed bounce domes that modify the trajectory and speed of the ball, as well as one hole in the middle at each side where upon entering the ball will appear at the opposite side, keeping its momentum. The layout of the domes on the court changes as the player faces a different team, up to a maximum of 10 variations.
RATING (9-10)
Speedball 2 makes several changes over the original Speedball. Teams have nine players on court rather than five, and targets on the floor and walls can be hit to receive bonus points. The number of points that a team receives for scoring a goal starts at 10 but can be increased to 15 or 20 via the use of score multipliers located on the walls of the pitch. The same number of points for scoring a goal is given for injuring a player from the opposing team. When a player is injured, he is replaced by one of three substitutes.
If all three substitutes are injured, the injured player will be forced to return to the game and play on in spite of his injuries. There are five game modes: knockout, cup, league, practice and multiplayer. Each game lasts for 180 seconds.
