Game Covers - Race/Spin-Out/Cryptogram (Philips G7000)

Race

A race against time - travel as far as you can before the two minutes are up.  The game calls for a fast reaction-time and precise handling of the joystick control.  There is a time-penalty for crashing.  The game is over when time left = 00:00

Spin-out

Key 2 selects 3-lap racetrack, key 3 selects 15-lap racetrack.  Race your opponent round the corners and barriers of the Spin0out circuit.  There is a time penalty for crashing or spinning the car.  You have a choice of slow or fast speeds, and basic or complex racetracks.

Cryptogram

A game of knowledge and deduction.  Type a word or phrase onto TV screen (don't let your opponent see it).  The letters of the phrase are then jumbled up, and your opponent must unscramble them (each correct letter remains on screen).  The screen shows the number of mistakes made.  The player who makes least mistakes wins.

Game Covers - Thing Bounces Back (Commodore 64)

Gremlin's springiest star is set to bounce straight back into a new adventure.  Following his world-saving exploits against the evil toy goblin and his monstrous toys, Things enjoyed his much-needed recuperation, oiled his spring, and is now raring to go.  What next?...  he must finish the job properly and halt the factory auto-producing these hideous toys.

But superfit as he is and fast as he can move there's danger around every bend...  goblins lurking to drain his oil, water rushing to bowl him over, iron chickens fielding dastardly deadly eggs.

A quick hand and dogged determination are needed if you're to get anywhere with Thing in his latest escapade.

Fast and furious action is the order of the day and a good sense of direction would be helpful to guide Thing round such a complex location.
