Ant Attack PC Ant Attack was a fantastic 3D isometric game written by Sandy White. Visit Tyrone's website for more information and a download of his Ant Attack PC remake. Also see the Ant Attack 2000 website for another 'in progress' remake.	See the Maps page for the complete map!

	Blazing Trails A superb conversion of that classic game Trailblazer. Featuring excellent graphics, this is a must download (albeit 1.12mb). Visit Allan Bentam's site to download.

Bubble Bobble One of the best games of all time gets a remake. More information here.

	Burger Time, Craig Rothwell (460K) Sideways platformer, featuring burgers, hot dogs, and fried eggs! Download the beta version here.

Hungry Horace I loved this game on the Spectrum - a simple Pacman clone, but with Horrace as the main character. This remake is brilliantly done, featuring great graphics, and some nice music. Well done!! Visit Rebelstar's website to download.

Manic Miner, Andy Noble (191K) All the above applies to Manic Miner as well - another great conversion by Andy. Get the original versions from the Spectrum Magic Games E-M page to compare.

	Pssst, John Dow & Andy Noble (478K) A remake of Ultimate's (now Rareware) classic bug spraying game. Programmed by John Dow with graphics by Andy Noble. More information can be found at www.nelefa.org/

Watman, Kak (1.01MB) A remake of Batman, Ocean's excellent isometric platformer. Very colourful and very playable. Can't wait for the Head over Heels remake, which is coming soon!
