A long time ago, when I was a kid, I played a lot with Commodore 16 games of an English company called Tynesoft. Unfortunately, they have since fallen into disrepair, but their games remain for us. As the world changed, so did gaming machines, and as a generation grew up, it became possible to rewrite these games to other consoles. I would like to introduce these awesome games to the people who like the Nintendo Gameboy Color. Receive with great love, and have fun!

JET SET WILLY 2 - THE FINAL FRONTIER
Whilst recovering in hospital from a severe fall down some stairs, Willy called in the builders. He thought it odd that they had green skin, but needing the work done in a hurry he asked them to remove the offending edges from his stairs. Trouble was, they did far more work than asked, adding several rooms to his mansion and then refusing to charge him!! Maria is demanding that Willy clears up the mess and he hasn’t even found all the rooms yet. Who were these strange people?
JUNIOR MATHS 2
This programme is designed for use by 5 to 11 years olds.
Each question gives you the opportunity to give the correct answer. Time counts in the background, and the longer it takes to solve, the less time you have to score, which is an arcade shooter. 8 lines of questions with multiplication and division, the best possible fun.
