If anyone can beat my 23 coins, I’ll be very surprised. That alien is a nightmare!

When did old toys become so cheap?!? I’ve been holding onto my Speak & Maths for decades, hoping to retire from selling it, but a working Speak & Spell for under £25?!?
Is this a remake or something?

Incredible find in the charity shop today. An album from 1968 (reprinted in 1970) of Garrison’s Gorillas, a tv show from the late 60s.
Check out the almost 60 year old artwork!
Check out the lovely artwork in A Slice of Dinosaur Pie by @tandemar on @Kickstarter.

Here's a short video of me playing the finished version of the enhanced, 128k only, version of #Wizball on the #ZXSpectrum. Full of various improvements - it has changed the game for me - now it's addictive & fun to play instead of being way too hard.
It'll be launched tomorrow!

Hey dudes.
There have seen 7 updates to the #DorothyAndAlice #kickstarter so far. Go take a look and meet the citizens of #Oz and #Wonderland as you’ve never seen them before.

Rts encouraged.
The Fall Guy by Elite was a HUGE let down. The TV show was great with its huge truck, jetpacks in the intro, stunts, the danger, falling off tall buildings…
The Fall Guy game might as well have been called Jumping Simulator. It was Stop The Express but from Temu.
We smashed the £70,000 stretch goal! 🎉 A huge thank you to everyone who helped make it happen.
Now it’s on to £90,000 and 16 Spectrum games that didn’t quite live up to the hype… Which one let you down? BMX Ninjas? Highlander? The Young Ones?
Follow @Golden_slumb for more ZX Spectrum trivia, fun facts, book news and competitions! #ZXSpectrum
16k to go?
Easy! Easy! Easy!
NEWSFLASH!
We are at £74k Spectrum fans!
Only another £16k to go until we unlock the next stretch goal…..

Grant has launched a Kickstarter for his graphic novel, called Dorothy and Alice.
If you’ve been to a Comiccon in the last 10 years there is a high chance you will probably be aware of Grants fantastic artwork.
Come and help fund this, and grab yourself a copy.
This has been wonderful fun to work on. It's taken well over a year to write, draw, and colour this labour of love that brings Wonderland and Oz together.
I hope you guys have as much fun with it as I did.

Support if you can, share if you can't.
Remember the board game I Vant To Bite Your Finger?
Just looking through the photos a the vampire and the board on this eBay listing, and it’s bringing back nostalgia in huge waves.
Did you play it?

Tonight’s light hearted entertainment is something about lambs at The Lowry. Sounds quite relaxing, tbh. Can’t imagine why they’ve just announced over the tannoy that it features scenes of an adult nature?
Stay away from that Trap Door,
‘Cos there’s something down there…
Happy Birthday to The Trap Door tv series. 40 years old today!
Did you play Don Priestley’s classic game?
Remember The Trap Door? 6th Oct 1986 was the first time it aired on TV, with the episode ‘Breakfast Time’.
Here are my tiny friends Berk, Boni and Drutt. Not sure who that little bear is peeping through in the background, though…

So glad that @PocketPixelDes decided to bring back the Pocket Pixel t-shirts. He had a stall at Play Expo Blackpool, I think he was blown away with the number of orders. Good to see you back, Quang!

Your support has already helped bring this book to life - thank you!
Now, we’d love to make it even bigger—with three additional eight-page chapters, adding 24 pages if we reach all three goals!
🎯 £70,000 — ATTACK OF THE CLONES!
The ZX Spectrum’s story travelled far beyond Britain—and so did the computer itself. This new chapter explores how the machine was copied and reinvented in the Soviet Union, Brazil, Portugal and many other countries. From familiar-looking keyboards to machines with a very different appearance, we’ll take a closer look at the ZX Spectrum’s extended international family and the impact it had on people within those countries.
Reaching £70,000 unlocks these eight extra pages for the book.
