1983 Spectrum Games Ltd (UK)
by Adrian Sherwin
The second conversion of Berzerk for the Spectrum, most likely not official.
It was later re-packaged and released by Ocean Software as 'Robotics'.
Looks less primitive than the 1982 version but it's worse. You can only destroy robots when firing at their heads, the robots don't seem to change colour or increase their firepower or speed, and Evil Otto (the smiling freak) moves way too fast.
Of course the arcade original was also primitive, so for accuracy purposes, the Speccy versions could not be a lot better, but this version is simple unplayable and uninteresting.
The arcade game is still extremely addictive at least to me, and the '82 version as a certain charm too it, unlike this version.
