Your Sinclair 6-Pack March 1991
Description
Six items was the most ever given away with a single issue of Your Sinclair magazine up to this time. These included playable demo versions of Back to the Future 3 and Switchblade, and some POKE cheats for top games such as Shadow of the Beast.
There are also 3 complete games. Two were once commercial releases - Dun Darach is the sequel to Tir Na Nog and sees Cuchulainn heading to the Secret City to find Loeg, while Biggles is a 2-part game based around the famous cartoon strip hero.
Exclusive to this cassette is Earth Shaker, a Boulder Dash-influenced action game in which the hero must run around mazes collecting diamonds and reaching an exit within the time limit, avoiding being squashed by diamonds which fall when he removes the ground from under him, or trapping himself behind rocks. Other gameplay elements include fire, teleports, fire squares and bubbles to extinguish them, and tags to make the gravity 'fall' upwards - sometimes required to release trapped diamonds.
