I'm astonished that people can watch the whole video and still notice missing games 😱 Obviously this isn't close to showing every game made for the spectrum, but this is one nightmare task to compile so many games in one video 👍
great video. I remembered some that are not on the list: agent orange, alien 8, amaurote, atic atac, bride of frankenstein, capitan Trueno, knight lore, nexor, sabre wulf, transmuter.
Wow thank you for putting this together my childhood memories flooding back. Some of my favs were match day, 3d star strike, booty, Bruce lee, ye ar Kung Fu,daily Thompson decathlon, hyper sports, manic, jet set and monty mole and many many more thanks again.
Great idea! Dividing the runlength by the number of seconds for each game shown (around 14) gives a result below 2,000 games in this video, assuming you show every game for as long as the few I counted the time for, though. You want at least ten times as many games for it to be "every" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Spectrum_software), but still a great concept. I will be showing this to my kids shortly; they are bound to demand a go at some of them. Keep up the good work! :-)
Ahhhhhh the Spectrum. The most idiosyncratic computer of all time. There are so many reasons to love this machine.. so funny and so cool. I love how so many of the sound effects sound like fart noises.
It lacks Corsarios! And another one that was about a monk who was running upwards the screen, with the help of a monkey sometimes as a powerup. I can't remember its name, HELP! And thanks for helping me remember some games that I completely forgot about!
Had a few old games lodged in the back of my mind...never been able to remember them fully...until now!!! Avenger!!! I spent days dedicated to that game with my sister. Just hoping the other game I've forgotten comes up somewhere later. Surprised to not see CJ The Elephant in your list...and CJ Goes to America...great platform games although you did have a few that looked just liked it under different titles.
Bit of a shame some games wasn't featured like aliens the motion pictyre, monopoly, trivial putauit, druid 2 enlightenment. Some great games. Fantastic video!
I remember playing Elite… can understand why it’s not on the list though… the damn lenslock security feature meant you spent more time repeatedly loading it than you did playing it…
I really appreciate the effort of compilating more than 6 hours of game examples. but honestly, I can't understand how most of them really are. Most of the time all I see are very short and confusing parts of all those games. I suppose will be better doing this on various parts. I guess almost nobody will see more than 10 minutes of this video without getting bored . Just IMHO. Anyway, awesome work :)
Great video. Going through this so I can add games that I might not know about or just plain forgot about for my steam deck batocera build and there's plenty I have missed but there's also a lot missing from the set of games I have so its not all of them but its certainly a comprehensive list
Great video and thank you for uploading. There are alot of ZX Spectrum games however that are not in this video e.g. Micronaut One, The Light Corridor and various others.
Yes no where near the entire library of games titles developed for the ZX Spectrum.But still an achievement to upload so many games as the channel has done here.
My first ever computer. I remember we bought a book with programs and games in code and i used to just type out the whole game into memory and play it for an hour. Then reset the machine and type out something else. Never saving anything cause i didnt know what the hell i was doing. RIP Sir Clive ed: Also A Day In Life was my favorite game, its only now i understand that its sir Clive you are playing
as a yank, the thing that's amazing to me about the speccy is that while with the color clash, it looks a fair bit worse than the american contemporaries like the c64 and atari 800/400, it's still able to hang in there. the colors look a bit worse but it can actually still play the same kinds of games and have good frame rate at the same time. all in such a tiny package. i can really understand how kids really fell in love with their little machines. i did have a timex/sinclair 100 with the memory pack but that felt really really low spec, even to my gradeschool eyes. i mean, it was outclassed by my atari vcs so that's sayin' something. woulda been a different story if it was a spectrum.
The success of Sinclair ZX Spectrum in Europe was its price: half of a Commodore 64 at its release date. And you need to think a bit over just Britain, since the salaries of most countries were (still are) quite lower than the ones in USA.
Us Spectrum fans always had an argument as to why the 48k was better than the C64. In a lot of cases, the C64 was slower and the graphics were blockier than the Spectrum. We never had an argument against the C64 sound though...
Great video, brings back good memories.I am still on P, been watching it for about a week. Was Microbot on here, can not remember? I think Arena! was missed off. Loads of these game on here I have never heard of. Loco-motion, Fahrenheit 3000, Santa, Byte Bitten , Gobbleman, Gulp Man, Orbix The Terrorball, Tanx, Sabre Wulf , Underwurlde, Stop The Express and Magic Meanies are missing.
Very nice video bro! Lots of good memories in it. I can't imagine how hard it was for you to compile all this games in this video, even though you have missed some good titles. So here it goes... 4x4 Off Road Racing Big Trouble In Lottle China Bionic Commando Commando Doom Enduro Racer Ghosts 'n' Goblins Ghouls 'n' Ghosts Klax Lemmings Lotus Turbo Esprit Macadam Bumper Midnight Resistance Motor Massacre Spectrum Poker Street Fighter Street Fighter 2 Toki Greetings and thanks!😉
Oh my God! Vectron, my favourite Tron-ish game on the ZX Spectrum is not in the list! In my humble opinion Vectron features Tim Follin's best beeper music.
Quite a few games missing, but a nice trip down the memory lane nevertheless. Maybe you guys can help me, I came here looking for a game that I believe I used to play on the Speccy a good 30 years ago; can't remember the name obviously. I think it was space-themed. You were on a squareish map, one part of the screen was displaying what you saw (similar to Tau Ceti / Academy), one may have had the map and I think there was a big "empty" figure of a humanoid robot at the right side of the screen. When you completed a level, you'd get a part of the robot filled in. You would clear the level by destroying all robots within it with lasers - the robot wrecks could self-repair unless they were destroyed to proper 0% health or 100% damage, don't remember which. You had to return to "factories" in the level to refuel or repair and I think you needed to repair some of the "factories" first. Does this sound familiar to anybody? :-)
Sorry! :D You were moving on a landscape seen through your eyes, similar to the Lords of Midnight, but there was no turning (let's say you were always facing north), and I think you always moved a whole screen, like in a dungeon crawler or again, Lords of Midnight. The enemies (robots, I think) would have a percentage-based health that showed when you were shooting them, and when you "killed" one, you had to keep shooting the "wreckage" for a while to destroy it properly, or it would slowly regenerate (I think there was another percentage shown so that you would know when it was all dead). There were some facilities on the map, I think factories that maybe could repair you, and something that could refuel you? Most of them started out as destroyed and you could repair them by shooting them (I'm really hazy on this). The shooting itself looked like the lasers in Elite. I don't remember if you had any special features yourself, like missiles or what not, or what more information there was on the screen. Maybe a minimap to give you some sense of where you were, but that's a maybe. I'm 100% sure I'm not confusing it with Tau Ceti, but it was sort of similar.
These may be all Classic games, however new games have been made for the Spectrum for years - these are missing here. RETURN magazine reports on these new games for this system and many other systems (NES/ SNES, Commodore 64, PlayStation, Sinclair, Sega Master System / Genesis, Atari 8-bit & 16-bit and a lot of more). If you want to know more about new games for classic computers and consoles, you should subscribe to RETURN magazine: www.return-magazin.de
Unfortunately, the game I'm looking for is not on this list. Maybe someone remembers something similar to Avenger, but with a slightly wider plan of the board on the screen, and you were probably walking around with a wizard, there were doors, keys, boxes and probably some barrels that you smashed in the tight corridors. there was no scroll between rooms. typical cliché of those times, but maybe someone can help...
Damn, thank you for this video, but I still can't find one game on Sinclair which I played long time ago. I thought it was named like "Arachnid" or "Arkanoid", but nope. In this game you played a robot that moved on 4 paws and had a hole in the middle acting as a gun. The robot shot balls that flew over the canopy. It was necessary to exterminate the giant flies. Ammunition was given very little and it was extremely difficult to get into flies. The camera view was like in diablo games. Maybe you know what the game it can be?
I'm looking for a game, where you are something like a ball? And you're on a maze where rooms are connected to each other like the first zelda screens? And it all looks somewhat alien? I'm sorry, my memory is fuzzy, I haven't played it since I was a kid.
2:36:58 or 5:12:56 lots of games were taken from ZX and transfered to Dendy as far as I can see. This one, for instance. Sim city, brothers Mario even Pack man. They all have started here

Amazing work in compiling that must have took ages...one memory I have of the zx spectrum games is that they were so bloody hard in general!
Today being 23 Apr 2017 Happy Birthday ZX Spectrum 35 years old today!
Over 40 now !
i used to have one and even for a 48k machine the game for it wear awesome
Damn that must have taken A LOT of work! Great video.
Not even close to the full list but a great effort all the same.. Brought back alot of great memories..thanks
I remember playing a lot of these games. Avalon was a game i had forgotten about but really enjoyed.
I'm astonished that people can watch the whole video and still notice missing games 😱

3D Painter was the first videogame I ever played. I've been looking for this title all my live.
This is remarkable - you even had Cruising on Broadway which must have been bought by about 4 people! Well done!
Today being 25 Apr 2020 Happy Birthday ZX Spectrum 38 years and 2 days old today!

GREAT VIDEO!!! Without border!!! Fullscreen!
AUTHOR YOU ARE AWESOMENESS!!!
I see some my favorite games!
Wow, tremendous work, so much for impossible
This video is SIMPLY the BEST resource for anyone wanting to game on the uber-creative Speccy!
1:57:22 "Edd the Duck". I've been looking for this game for 27 years! (I didn't remember the title and who was the main character.)
thank you for making this video. good to be able to see all the games in one video with the game title for reference.
Ahhhhhh the Spectrum. The most idiosyncratic computer of all time.
There are so many reasons to love this machine.. so funny and so cool. I love how so many of the sound effects sound like fart noises.
That's how it was started and I was lucky to witness such a wonderful time. The new era is incoming , era of VR.
Awesome Games back then
It lacks Corsarios! And another one that was about a monk who was running upwards the screen, with the help of a monkey sometimes as a powerup. I can't remember its name, HELP!
And thanks for helping me remember some games that I completely forgot about!
Thanks to this video I found a Spectrum game I played as a kid and couldn't remember the name of the game for ages.
Thanks for this! I remember some of these had great music on the 128k version.
Awesome work. I'm only missing some titles I used to play... Academy, Nether Earth, Arhnem...
The Spectrum graphics were really nice!! looked better than Commodore's.. ZX Spectrum is probably my favorite retro computer, countless fun games
I hope you’re not joking..
@@jonahabenhaim1223 Huh??? No I'm not joking, I promise!! 😂
Had a few old games lodged in the back of my mind...never been able to remember them fully...until now!!! Avenger!!! I spent days dedicated to that game with my sister.

Surprised to not see CJ The Elephant in your list...and CJ Goes to America...great platform games although you did have a few that looked just liked it under different titles.
Great job compiled, from my time
The Spectrum really was the "Wild West" of video game creation!
Loved this. So many memories!
Bit of a shame some games wasn't featured like aliens the motion pictyre, monopoly, trivial putauit, druid 2 enlightenment. Some great games. Fantastic video!
Who the fuck spells Picture as Pictyre?
and it's Pursuit, not Putauit...smh

ll Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games - Every ZX Spectrum Game In One Video (almost) [WITH TITLES]
I would add Academy as well, one of the greatest games on ZX in my opinion
But still , lots of efforts were involved to create this video.

ZX Spectrum has over 20,000 games titles plus other non games titles developed for it.
Great job, but I did not see Captain Trueno. One of the best looking games.
Missed “Apple Jam” (in fact, didn’t missed it at all 😂).
excellent work,thanks
wow !!! great
Can you please share a list of names somewhere? It’s a brilliant job you done!
Good work, almost all. I think it is missing Aliens by electric dreams?
AWESOME :) !!!!
thanks a lot !

Robot Attack by Mastertronic? The giant robot was on the left of the screen and filled up, and the right of the screen was a kind of platformer.
@@sheppertonstudios8253 Thanks for the tip, but sadly that's not it. :(

Good , Buy can't find Dig Dug.
That's because Dig Dug was never released on the Spectrum, at least not officially.

The title is deceiving. Some of the best games are missing particularly the ones by Ultimate from Alien 8 to Underwurlde
Nope! Attic attack missing !!!
Where is Ant attack?
Where nodes of yesod
I had a C64 and remember thinking it was vastly superior to the Spectrum but actually these graphics seem more high-res than the Commodore.
Where heartland
Interesting list, they are not strictly in the correct alphabetical order.
And now no ATIC ATAC either. Oh yeah because ULTIMATE never made ANY of the BEST games on the Spectrum!! EVERY Spectrum game my arse!!
Somebody, pls make timecodes :)
