Welcome to a new series of videos on my channel!

💎 Amstrad CPC Hidden Gems! 💎
🕹️ #1 – “DESTRUCTO!” (aka “The Island Of Dr Destructo”)

As chosen and voted for by the Amstream community! For the last 3 years on our live streams we’ve been searching for those Amstrad games that are great but very rarely get seen or spoken about – and deserve some love! Digging up buried treasure and finding those hidden gems of CPC gaming! All of them have been viewer suggestions, it’s then been played and reviewed – then voted on in a live poll as to whether it should be awarded the coveted ‘hidden gem’ status or not. Those games that achieved this will now start appearing in these semi-regular byte sized videos in-between my usual longplay & review content!

And first up is the absolutely addictive and definitely dazzling … DESTRUCTO! Also known as The Island Of Doctor Destructo. An all time Amstrad classic, that even within CPC circles is still either relatively unknown or just simply forgotten about. Let’s find out why it’s such a gem and the reason I made it the first one to start off this new series… 👊

With thanks to a good friend of the Amstream, Mr Yellow Belly, for doing the original series on these! Yellow Belly’s YouTube channel – https://www.youtube.com/@yellowbelly9005
