I have just had a look at this and the great memories are flooding back. I'm going to try these out after work- monty mole, jet set willy and manic miner.
The only one that is missing from my best programmes is Wonderboy. Does anyone know where I can get that one from?
There used to be an occasional Wonderboy machine in old amusement arcades but they all seem to have disappeared Can anyone help?

If you want to play old arcade games download the MAME emulator. Legally, of course, you need to own the ROMS for each game to use the emulator.....

Yep. You have to make all the shields flash to confuse the teachers. Then shoot them with the catapult to make them reveal part of the code. Except the history teacher - you have to write the date of the battle he mentions on his blackboard before class. When he sees it he reveals his part of the code. Then use the code to open the safe and complete the game by putting all the shields back to normal.

Something like that. It's been a while.

Hold on! I find it incredibly hard to manage to get the shields flashing, not only on the ground floor - where I have to hit the teacher to get on the floor and then hit him again to ricochet on his head and hit the shield - but especially in the first floor class room where it seems I can only reach it by hitting the teacher again when he's on the floor. And all this while not getting caught and enduring Einstein's lies that get me lines!
Far too hard!

Yep, it's pretty tough. I just had a go and managed to get all the shields flashing except one. In the 1st floor classroom, punch Einstein (or anyone) in the face. When they're on the floor you can jump on them for the extra height you need. The hard one to get is the one above the blackboard. Wait for Boy Wonder to go and write on the board during playtime.

There's a video walkthrough here. It is long, but it's worth watching in full. It's not just completing it, it's doing it in style. He even takes time to write messages to you as he goes along.

Click on the game you want from the list on the right. Then click on the Spectrum "screen". You should then be able to play, but it's guesswork when it comes to working out the controls. :cool:
