Spectrum Computing presented me DigiTape - Your Sinclair issue 08, which has two arcade games I've not reviewed yet, so let's do them now. This one given its name would imply that it's a nice little game about spotting trains, WRONG! No, this game involves you control Ed and he has to spot the missing word in the article and to do that he pulls down pages to reveal words, and revealing the train means you start losing time, and for a game bearing the word Trainspotter, it makes zero sense. And you know what else makes no sense? This game makes no sense. I'm not even sure what I'm meant to be looking for? A word that only appears once? Level 1 game me a bunch of numbers in one and that turned out to correct! And even then you have to avoid the ball constantly nagging at you and pissing you off. This was absolutely dire, it made no sense whatsoever and I never want to see it again.
