It’s never so easy finding shareware games in the UK mags but there were a couple of One Must Fall reviews for this month. Interesting to see the comparisons to the forthcoming Rise Of The Robots:-

Glowing, if short review in the Finnish Pelit magazine (7th issue of 1994). It’s mainly a walkthrough of game modes and features, highlighting that this is a bloodless fighting game, you select both the robot and the pilot, the tournament mode adds depth, the robot designs are distinct and remind the reviewer of b-movies, and the fact that the game is an impressively high-quality shareware game is mentioned or alluded to several times.

Nice, thanks again pix.
One thing I can’t help but mention, both the reviews seem to think that the pilot is physically inside their robot, but according to the manual the pilot projects their consciousness into the robot in a way that sounds a lot like how people jack into the matrix.

Looks like I failed twice to add the image. Maybe this link works, even though adding a picture would be so nice …
