Not one of the best Capcom Speccy games it has to be said. Bad graphics, poor gameplay, mediocre title tune, nice in-game tune but it doesn't improve the game whatsoever.

Terrible conversion, there are loads of slash em up games better than this on the Speccy.

The Spectrum conversion of this Capcom platform/beat-em-up does not look exceptional at first glance, but at least passable: graphics could do with more detail, scrolling and movement are rather jerky, but apart from there are no big problems. Troubles begin when you realize this is a cut-down conversion: instead of the five levels of the original, only the first one made its way to the Spectrum. After the end of it you go back to the start.

Of course, there have been in the past decent coin-op conversions for the Spectrum which only featured a (large) part of the original game - e.g. Ghosts 'n' Goblins -, but being forced to play a mediocre rendition of just one level out of five is a real rip-off. Thumbs down.

Although poor in its graphic presentation , my memories of Tiger Road are so fond that I cannot give this little classic a bad review . . . 3 / 5 .

Beat'em up/platformer. Ugly sprites, but smooth scrolling and very responsive control makes it quite playable in my opinion.
