Zanaton
Yet another SEUCK title which has come from the Zzap article which was ran back in 1992 time to search for good Megatape games. Richard Thompson’s Zanaton was a neat little space shooter, which got Zzap excited because of the … Continue reading
Zanga-duck and the gribblies
One of the things I love about unreleased games and the demos that are out there, is that sometimes you can uncover something hidden within which reveals something about the game. In this case, it was about another game entirely! … Continue reading
Zany Golf

Zenulas
A short entry for yet another SEUCK effort that was being produced by Stoo Cambridge, and could well have also gone on The Power House label. The game was to be a Starforce style game, but never got too far … Continue reading
Ziggurat

Zoids 2

Zoids 2
A very short entry which is thanks to Patrick Furlong. At the end of the first game on the ZX Spectrum, there is mention of a Zoids 2 game coming soon. Was this true, or was it perhaps something tongue-in-cheek … Continue reading
Zombies
It was in 1983 that a company called Bram Software released a game called Zombies for the Atari 800, which was later released as Realm of Impossibility by Electronic Arts. What is odd though, that although the game exists as … Continue reading
Zombies, Undead Or Alive
Along with Cyber Cop, Pedersen Systems were due to release this game on the Commodore 64 and advertisements listed it as so. However, only the PC versions managed to see the light of day and the C64 conversions failed to … Continue reading
Zone Warrior
The first thing to say for this shoot ’em up is that the lack of a C64 version may not be a huge loss. Amiga Power magazine described it as "possibly the least involved game we’ve ever reviewed", and Electronic … Continue reading
Zool

Zorakk
What is it with fantasy games from the 1980s and the letter Z? So many characters, particularly in American fantasy (so it seemed to me) start with the letter Z. The wizard from the American version of Heroquest was called … Continue reading
ZuckNet
199? Mark Zuckerberg Platform: Atari 400/800 Something a little bit different, highlighted thanks to Bertrand / Atari Mania. This was an early utility that was created by Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook/Meta fame. It was a communications/radio/electronics utility which may have … Continue reading
Zulp
A very early game where it seems you are meant to disable a set of fans within a simple 2D map. I think! I’m not fully sure exactly what you are meant to do, but this preview was built back … Continue reading
Zyborian Terror
A quick entry for a game which was flagged up by Peter Weighill whilst doing some research. Zyborian Terror was a game briefly advertised in the likes of Your 64 and Commodore Computing International in 1984, under the main advert … Continue reading
Zzap Italia homebrew
A bit of a cheats entry, but whilst going through Zzap Italia scans, we found many titles that the magazine previewed and which are as of yet unpreserved. SEUCK, 3DCK and custom developed titles that are still at large. Please … Continue reading
