City Bomb, ZX Spectrum

City Bomb is a conversion of the super-simple Llamasoft VIC-20 bomber game, Blitzkrieg, to the ZX Spectrum. It was first released in 1982.

There’s not a great deal to say about City Bomb, other than it isn’t as unforgiving as the original VIC-20 version.

There are five skill levels and five entry waves, but the gameplay is the same every time, with just tweaks to building height and aircraft speed.

City Bomb is a forgettable early Spectrum and Llamasoft game with limited playability. I’ve seen better games of this type on the Spectrum, and on other 8-bit systems. Hell, I’ve seen better minigames in other 8-bit games than this…
