[AMSTRAD CPC] Rex – Longplay & Review 🦏 (I Talked With The Amstrad Coder!)

Longplay and review for “Rex” on the Amstrad CPC!

Rex is a famous ZX Spectrum game notable for how crazy the action was, the colourful graphics and how it got round the machines notorious colour clash, as highlighted in Kim Justice’s recent excellent video on the subject – which inspired me to look at the overlooked and forgotten about Amstrad version, which was the only other version of Rex! Was it for good reason?

Let’s find out! With the help of the Amstrad coder himself – Neil Dodwell! Who graciously talked to me about his work porting the game to the Amstrad!!

Let’s get horny with Rex… 🦏
