Bomb Busters Amiga

It's annoying to encounter a game which you know is fast and addictive on other less talented computers, only to find a slow version on the Amiga.

Bomb Busters is a simplistic game, with sluggish controls and little or no inducement for the player to continue through the levels. There is a somewhat limp attempt on the box to make some kind of storyline about terrorists planting bombs all over the world's famous buildings, but otherwise there isn't a lot to keep the player's interest in jetpacking around the screen headbutting bombs to defuse them. The aliens that are supposed to be chasing you around the screen seem a bit preoccupied. I almost felt like saying to them, “Look, you seem busy. Shall I come back when you're more interested in killing me?”.

Bomb Busters is a flaccid example of the game designer's art, and not even children would be fooled by it for long.
