Next up is Computronic. This magazine started in April, 1984 as a monthly magazine, but turned bi-monthly in November of the same year. They had a long run up until the November/December 1987 issue. You will notice that for the first few issues they obviously took what they could get their hands on.
MULTIGRAPH (SUPER EXPANDER): Display mathematical graphics. Try typing "J" after starting for automatic mode.
ALL-RAMMER (unexpanded VIC): Use keys T F G V to steer your space ship collecting 15 atomic containers. Each container will be added to the end of your ship. Make sure not to hit the space stations.
Those are still type-ins from 1984. The merge with Homecomputer took place in late 1986. The quality went up in about 1985, so there are still some very nice type-ins to come.
ZYKLO (unexpanded VIC): Get the treasure in the middle of the screen. Use keys P, L, ;, Space to move. You also pick up the fruits on the border. If you have one you can blast a wall by pressing : and then the direction key where the wall is. Note: This was later republished in "Homecomputer" January, 1985 issue.
METEORIT (unexpanded VIC): Shoot the meteors coming to earth.
GARTEN (unexpanded VIC): Plant flowers, water them, scare away birds, fertilize and collect the flowers and deposit them. Problem is you can only use one action at the same time (pick on the right)
SCHLOSS GRUSELSTEIN (unexpanded VIC): Capture the ghosts in the middle of the purple cages. Move with W, A, D, Space - to capture a ghost you can build bricks by pushing F7 and the direction key directly afterwards.
FRESSMANN (unexpanded VIC): Another PAC MAN-clone.
OUTLAW (unexpanded VIC): A wild-west duel. Shoot your enemy (in the head, in the feet just stuns him). You need to reload at the bottom once you run out of ammo.
BUFFALO-BILL (unexpanded VIC): First collect the gold avoiding Billy the Kid, then avoid the indian arrows riding through the canyon, finally take the gold to the bank - oh wait... there's a cattle herd gone wild on the street you got to cross.
PROST (unexpanded VIC): Drink the bottles to be able to walk to the next, collecting all bottles. Finally go to the flag. Three rounds.
POWERPACK (unexpanded VIC): Eat the dots, avoid the ghosts. Move with W, A, D, Space. You have one warp to homebase to activate with F7. To get another warp collect the letters SUPER in the right order.
JOY MAN (unexpanded VIC): Eat the large mushrooms. Move with joystick or W, A, D, X
WORKMAN (unexpanded VIC): Move all items to the containers at the bottom. Take care just to move one item per time. If you move one on top of another they only count as one and you can't solve the level anymore.
PHARAO (+3K): Collect 500 points, then collect the yellow Pharao and go to the exit.
MATRON (unexpanded VIC): A TRON-lightcyle game where the main part is done in machine language. Choose a speed from 21 (slow) to 1 (fast). Player 1 Joystick, Player 2 WASZ. If you want to play against computer type J on the second screen (after choosing the speed).
Great. Although some games are slightly modified versions of others, I like their huge variability and fantasy used to create them!
