Cover of the December 1985 issue of Amstrad Action

The Amstrad CPC was a popular 8-bit computer in the U.K. and other parts of Europe. Amstrad Action was a magazine dedicated to that platform that emphasized gaming. The December 1985 issue includes:

Hot Reviews

  • Marsport - An interesting looking split screen adventure game with a sci-fi setting.

  • Big League Soccer - Football (Soccer) management programs seeemd to all the rage in the U.K. I don't think they were that popular in North America though.

  • 3D Grand Prix - Looks to be something between Pole Position and Grand Prix Circuit.

  • Soul of a Robot - 256 rooms to puzzle your way out of in this action/puzzle game.

  • Dynamite Dan - A highly rated action game that reminds be a bit of Spelunker. I never played this one but I loved Spelunker on the Commodore 64.

  • Spy v. Spy - An excellent game based on the comic strip of the same name.

  • Cauldron - A combination of genres that include Defender like sequences and platform game like sequences.

The people doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved deeply with her group and @fyrstikken . Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. I cant prove she is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing it. I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have tried to kill me and are still trying to kill me. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome.

They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
