Time for some fun!
The screenshots below represent a smattering of Speccy nostalgia from my youth. Infact, they are probably all jointly responsible for the ultimate demise of my Speccys membrane keyboard, and certainly a few occasions of bloodshot eyes.

But, do any of you lot remember them? And more importantly, can you identify them from the screenies?



The first character from each game will form a 15 character password that you will NEED to UNRAR DSpec 0.2a (when it's released later this evening).

But please, once you know the password don't post it here
Should be easy for most, but we'll see.

BTW - the password is not a word or sentence - it's meaningless, so you won't be able to fill in the blanks if you only know some of the games. Mwah ha ha ha ha haaa

I've tried wheelie hard, but I can't spy much in yie puzzle.

/HiVE: Very amusing

Getting there ....

But the are not real dspec snapshots

[Kenty]

I know only 5 of them: Wheelie, Heartland, Splat, Nodes of Yesod and Alien 8. The others:
Tooo difficult for me.

BTW: Nice idea

PS: I changed the sequence of the games I know to not spoil anybody else.

so not fair - one thing I never played on the speccy was text adventures - just not my thing - can anyone help me out on the 3 text adventures (5,6,13) and dont know 4 or 15 although 4 looks very similair to something else i know and love - is it a relatively unknown follow up or something?
PM me if you can help me out!
Cheers

You should be ashamed!

I would put 4, 9 and 10 in my top ten speccy games!

Glad you're having fun. And well done to those that know them all - true Speccy fans!

It'll definately be out tonight, although it'll be close to midnight at this rate!
