Joe Blade Players Software, 1987
Classic budget hit that punches well above its £1.99 price tag.
You play the moustachioed one-man army Joe Blade, sent into the lair of the villainous Crax Bloodfinger to rescue six kidnapped world leaders and plant six bombs. It’s a flip-screen maze of rooms and outdoor areas filled with guards, collectibles and plenty of shooting action. The standout is the tense letter-rearranging mini-game for arming the bombs under a tight time limit
A fun shoot-’n’-search adventure that’s punchy, and satisfying.
