A long, long time ago on a ZX Spectrum far, far away a lot of people used to play a wonderful game called ‘Jet Set Willy’. It was an infuriating, but addictive task to collect all of the empty glasses after Willy’s wild night.

If you thought those days were gone then think again! I used to love ‘Jet Set Willy’ and many were the time that I would remember it and shed a tear. But now I play it on my PC! ‘How so?’, you ask. Well, it has all been made possible by some very nice people who have created an online version.

Once you have registered with this website (if you want to submit your high scores) you will be able to get back to helping Willy clean-up his mansion. There are so many rooms to visit and even he can’t remember seeing a lot of them before!

But wait, it didn’t all start here. ‘What about an online remake of ‘Manic Miner’?’, you complain. You are quite right and here it is! Now the only thing you have to worry about is which one you are going to play.

‘Manic Miner’ and ‘Jet Set Willy’ were both originally designed by Matthew Smith. The people responsible for these remakes have done a brilliant job. Every little detail has been lovingly recreated! If you ever manage to complete these two (and if you do you are a better man than me!) then there are some ‘new’ games to play that also feature Willy. Lose yourself in two other massive adventures; ‘Willy: The Pyramid Maze’ and ‘Willy’s Mountain Party’. Wow!

How does a three valleys ski contest sound to you?? All of you must enter, I really want to win this! I am really tired of all this snow and I feel that we need to do something that reminds us that sometimes…snow can be nice…
