  • Boot Sector - Contents of the cover disks this month include one complete game (Psycho Santa) and three demos (Doctor Who, Gunship 2000, and Archer MacLean's Pool).

  • News - Two new games coming from Digital Image Design for the Amiga 1200 including Odyssey and TFX Inferno; new platform game from Miracle Games called Miracle Bat; new Amiga joystick (Argostick) from Cheetah; new version of Zool for the Amiga 1200; and more.
