Control is either with joystick or keyboard. gameplay is either single player against computer teams, or up to 8 players in a turn-based multiplayer mode. Games last about 5 minutes, and a timer counts this down, but stops to wait for penalties, free kicks, half-time, etc. The player controls one team member at a time, and this player is shown by a halo above their head. If this player moves away from the ball too far or for too long, control is switched to the next nearest player on the football field. Players with highest score at the end win the match.Block Dizzy

Block Dizzy
1992
This game was created by a reader of Your Sinclair, Arno van der Hulst, and sent in to them for inclusion on their Cover Tape. It appeared with Issue 81, dated September 1992, as part of their Magnificent 7 series of cover mounted cassettes. The idea of the game is to plonk together three or more blocks of one colour, causing them to disappear from the play area. You can't alter the orientation of the blocks, but by pressing fire you can rotate the colours. Once you've connected enough blocks to reduce the number at the right hand side of the screen to zero, you move on to the next level. The instructions in the magazine state that choosing the 'Kempston Joystick' option in the menu won't work.Vatman
