  • Revisting Wheelie by Microsphere on the ZX Spectrum. Originally released in 1983 it was one of the Speccy's early classic games.The game was also re-released by Alternative Software in 1998.
    Wheelie was one of those frustratingly addictive games where you knew you could complete the level, yet annoyingly you kept messing up! The replayability (not sure that's a word) was so high that you had to have one more go.
    I remember spending hours on the game and I don't remember getting very far either.
    What are you memories of Wheelie?
    Game play recorded using a ZX Spectrum Next KS2.

    Bizarre game. Anyone who has played it will remember it well. A "platformer" with a motorbike and it is even scrolling and does it back in 1983. Very strange "dungeon" atmosphere and LCD dot graphics. Programmer David S. Reidy (UK) was world class, see his Back to Skool, Contact Sam Cruise or Sky Ranger.

      I think the dugeon atmosphere is what makes it so good. Back to Skool is a classic too! I need to revisit Sam Cruise so perhaps that's one for a future video? Thanks for watching.
