Strategy Guides Editorial Review

"A Guide to ZX Spectrum Adventure Games - 1982-1985" is a well-researched and detailed book that provides valuable information about a beloved topic. Written in a pleasant and informal style, the short reviews within the book create a compelling reading experience that keeps readers engaged. One drawback of the print version is the use of a tiny font and wide margins, making reading a chore. This issue could have been easily resolved by utilizing the page space more effectively. The Kindle version suffers from the same problem and is not suitable for reading on a phone. However, the lazy publishing job does not overshadow the overall quality of the content. The loss of the publisher's website and the inability to download online bonus materials as of March 2023 is unfortunate. Despite its high price, the book's hilariously awful writing style adds unexpected entertainment value, making it almost worth the cost for the laughter it brings. The interviews with various authors and the comprehensive coverage of ZX Spectrum adventure titles make this book a superb resource. It serves as a great reminder of the multitude of amazing adventure games that were available during the ZX Spectrum era. The inclusion of maps for difficult games adds value to the book, making readers eager to revisit and replay them. All in all, "A Guide to ZX Spectrum Adventure Games - 1982-1985" is a highly recommended book for retro gaming enthusiasts looking for a comprehensive guide to a significant era in gaming history.
