Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 7) by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "Moley Christmas" by Gremlin Graphics (1987). Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous. "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is Copyright ©2021 Thomas A. Christie, all rights reserved, and is published by Extremis Publishing Ltd. This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.
