NEVER HAVE SO MANY
Jones and the Fate of Atlantis,
The Addams Family and
Chuck Rock hit the reviews
y
o w z apages, and a month! Indiana
, what the quality of all
three is truly astounding. "Never in the field
of human gaming has so much been coded
by so few for so many a s Churchill said
(sort of!). And all this is backed by the very
best that the budget circuit has to offer.
These excellent reviews are supported
with the cream of the gamebusting crop,
and Andy Roberts has played a stormer this
month! To celebrate the release of Rainbow
Islands on budget, he begins the ultimate
playing tips expose on the best coin-op con-
version ever seen. You lust won't believe
the secrets he uncovers. All shoe-horned in
alongside the best pokes, cheats and game
tips money can buy!
And games-players and Techies alike
MUST read our in-depth look at the new
3.5" TIB drive. It offers a wodge of free
games and a tool-kit that would shame the
A.A. But can it deliver?
We're proud to welcome back that old
funster Stevie Jarratt to the pages of CF, as
he lakes a look at what would make the ulti-
mate C64 game. And it's a bog hello, come
in, sit down and have a steaming cuppa to
two new C F souaddies. Lisa Nicholls takes
over the design chair from Lam Tang and
Jason Finch debuts as
Inside Into's new
supremo. Greetings to
them both, and to you.
Read on and enjoy.

Did Atlantis ever really exist? Let's
hope so because that's where Uncle
lady is headed in this fourth epic
adventure for the action archeolo-
gist. This time hat-man is hunting
the mysterious mineral Orichalcum,
which has the power to destroy the
world - as we knew it! Lucasfilm
have opted for an isometric 3D
look for this adventure, but does
it work? We whip the review into
shape on p_18

Follow the arrows,

Home, home of the
