: Manic Miner

: I remember the 1982 version on the BBC Model B by Micropower.

there are a few bbc emulators that emulate it, you can get them from www.8bs.com, you should be able to find the game there as well, just follow the links... also you may be able to find a spectrum emulator, or a pet emulator that does it too, just trying searching with yahoo. Lindz- 6/12/2000 (0)
