1987 Piranha (UK)
by Five Ways Software

I really tried to like this game, I like the looks of it, I like the idea behind it and the firing seems fun, but with just one life and with such a hard boat to control is hardly any joy, at all.

You're so busy trying to understand which of the four weapons to use that you don't realize you're already dead.
2/5

Now I look at Gunboat following my glitch mentioned in Piranha's review, and well I now wish I never bothered. This is as unplayable and unenjoyable as Bestial Warrior, but at least you were able to control your man, fire your weapon and you had lives. Here can't even do anything before dying and you only have one life. You basically paid 9 quid for game you can't even last more than ten seconds, unless you bought the Alternative Software version which if so you only paid 2 quid, still it was a waste of money and time on all accounts.
