Blazer is a classic vertical shoot 'em up set against the backdrop of an intergalactic conflict. Players take on the role of a mercenary hired by the Sahiban race to steal the Mazeli's ultimate weapon, a powerful ship called the 'Blazer'. The game features top-down gameplay where players navigate through enemy-infested space, dodging attacks and returning fire with a basic forward-shooting cannon. With no power-ups available, success relies purely on the player's skill and reflexes. Enemies approach from various directions, and players can also target ground-based installations. The mission's high stakes and limited resources (only five ships to complete the task) create a challenging and intense space combat experience, where every decision counts in the quest to turn the tide of an age-old war.

Ghetto Blaster is a computer game that was released for the Commodore 64 in 1985. It was developed by two former employees of the software house Taskset.
The aim of the game is to find and collect ten cassette tapes of dance music, get people to dance to them by blasting them with notes from your ghetto blaster, then delivering them to your record company, Interdisc. These ten music tracks were played by the game throughout. A maze of streets, alleyways and cul-de-sacs are laid out, populated by bizarre characters, some helpful and some deadly.
The street names are named after famous songs ("Blackberry Way", "Desolation Row", etc.) - a map was provided in the cassette inlay - and some of the characters reference others (one to avoid is the Psycho Killer, while the Jumpin' Jack Flash It's A Gas Gas Gas takes you to a tape's location).
