International Soccer

Get the ball to the wing. Advance to your opponents goal and when you draw level with the front of the penalty area shoot diagonally.

Move up the centre of the field and when you get behind the penalty spot shoot directly at goal. The goalie will save, but you should be able to pick up the rebound with ease and slot the ball home before the keeper has a chance to recover.

To win possession at GOAL KICKS, wait at the screen's edge in line with the ball. When it is about to be kicked move away from it.

At THROW-INS forget trying to follow the opponent - just get in line with the thrower's angle and wait for the throw.

6) The red potion makes you travel in the direction you are facing till you hit something or someone.
7) Once you've completed a task go and stay at an inn. Magical boots which make you run fast are available from the serf in Treela. He is usually inside the inn and the boots cost 77 gold pieces.

Add go-faster stripes to your Commodore by plugging in a RAM expansion pack examining code, routines for transferring from tape to disk, an editor to change a text screen (high score tables beware!) or to save out a bitmap.

A friend who helped test the game always used to say 'now I've got the wind behind me' while playing left to right – or was it right to left? Anyway, I thought he was talking nonsense, there being no 'wind' in International Soccer
