Hello everyone! Welcome to another episode where we on real hardware check out SHOVEL ADVENTURE for 128k, THE DARK - a FPS game for 48k and a BOULDER DASH clone for 16k + lots of other interesting stuff! We set spot on the 3 original ZX Spectrum models (16k, 48k, 128k) and we play A Blast From The Past and a Modern Era Hit on all the machines, so every episode features 6 games. See gameplay from the games on real hardware, see how they look on a CRT TV, see if they look playable and interesting to you, and grab them from the links if you want them. Besides new and classic games this series will also have spot on the best in modern and old school demos, pixel art, AY music, Beeper music, Turbo Sound music etc.

With lots of releases every year since 1982 the ZX Spectrum has an impressive back catalogue. Systems with 16k, 48k and 128k were produced, and we check out some cool releases for all of these systems.
