A neat arcade adventure, but where are The Visitors? |
| Vagan Attack |
Atlantis Software Ltd |
73% (Issue 9, p11) |
Tremendous value for 'Trek' fans, generally good value for most players, makes for a good two-players-on-the-same-side game. |
| Valhalla |
Legend |
81.5% (Issue 1, p41) |
An excellent program all round, which has gone further with graphics than any adventure game yet, but with reservations about the ultimate appeal of the quest, and an expensive game to buy. |
| Valkyrie 17 |
The RamJam Corporation |
80% (Issue 11, p110) |
Very humorous adventure. |
| Vampire |
Dinamic Software |
51% (Issue 35, p37) |

Insight Software |
92% (A CRASH SMASH, Issue 24, p36) |
A brilliant arcade shoot em up. |
| Vegetable Crash |
Kuma Computers Ltd |
63% (Issue 5, p100) |
An oddball version of an old game, well implemented but perhaps a bit slow and repetitive for the experienced shoot 'em up addict. |
| Vendetta |
System 3 Software Ltd |
91% (A CRASH SMASH, Issue 78, p42) |
A brilliant arcade/strategy game. Grab that crowbar and go for it. |

CRL Group PLC |
82% (Issue 32, p64) |
Good jaunt. |
| Video Poker |
Entertainment USA |
35% (Issue 34, p132) |
Another poker/fruit machine simulator, competent but uninspiring. |
| Video Pool |
Oxford Computer Publishing |
69% (Issue 15, p14) |
A enjoyable game but apart from the smooth graphics this is a fairly standard version. |
| View to a Kill, A |
Domark Ltd |

Certainly worth having. |
| Vigilante |
US Gold Ltd |
86% (Issue 64, p86) |

Great compilation, representing a landmark in Speccy gaming. |
| Virus |
Firebird Software Ltd |
77% (Issue 55, p14) |
A playable conversion of a 16-bit game. Just slightly too hard to keep you really hooked. |
| Virus |
Orange Software |
62% (Issue 7, p88) |
Above average. |
| Virus |
Spectrum Adventure Exchange Club |
65% (Issue 53, p49): |
Doesn't exactly stand head and shoulders above the crowd. |
| Vixen |
Martech Games Ltd |
60% (Issue 54, p83) |
After all the hype Vixen has turned out to be quite an attractive little game, albeit with short-lived appeal. |

45% (Issue 12, p80) |
A very large game, but generally below average, especially at the price. |

A waste of money. |
