The Enchanted Stones of Cameronne
This isn’t the first time Ishido has been converted to the Amstrad CPC, but this version is a good effort and it looks very nice and has some atmospheric background music courtesy of Roald Strauss (Mr Lou). You can download The Enchanted Stones of Cameronne from the CPCWiki forum.

Following a recent stream by Xyphoe, I have also rewritten my review of Psycho Pigs UXB and given it a higher rating.

Novabug’s Macmillan Cancer Support fundraiser
Last Saturday, Novabug held a charity fundraising event for Macmillan Cancer Support on YouTube. Normally each Saturday he tests five or six cassettes from his extensive collection of Amstrad CPC games, while people watching the stream will chat about the games being loaded and played, and other things as well. However, last Saturday, he tested 20 (yes, twenty) copies of Bridge-It in his collection and auctioned all of them off for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Bridge-It is widely regarded as one of the worst games to be released for the Amstrad CPC (scoring 0 out of 10 on this site – it really is that bad). It is incredibly easy to find on auction sites like eBay (there are nearly 25 copies of the game on sale on the site as I write this!), and because of this, and the fact that its reputation is so poor, it’s worth very little, if anything.
I wasn’t expecting much from Novabug’s fundraiser, but thanks to the amazing generosity of CPC fans, his initial target of £464 was smashed and all twenty copies of Bridge-It were sold and a staggering £1,130.35 was raised! Congratulations to Novabug and thanks to everyone who donated to such a worthwhile cause. (I was one of the people who bought a cassette, for the normally ludicrous sum of £20.50 – but it’s for charity, of course.) You can watch a replay of the YouTube stream below, and you can still make a donation via JustGiving.
