Deus Ex Machina (ZX Spectrum)

Mel Croucher's 1984 magnum opus, Deus Ex Machina, was one of the most ambitious (both artistically and technically) games to ever appear on the ZX Spectrum and the only game that came complete with synchronized audio on a separate tape. Now, to experience its odd minigames and excellent, dystopian plot the way you were always meant to, do grab this boxed Deus Ex Machina that appeared on eBay. Seller ships worldwide. Oh, and it's quite rare too!

  1. Jon Pertwee, Frankie Howerd AND Ian Dury in the same cast? Man, that's some line-up.

  2. Weeeell, it was and still is a cultural achievement this Deus Ex Machina. And you should really hear the music/voice-overs.
