Anyone remember this compilation tape? I think it came out around the time of Live Aid and was possibly linked to it in some way?

Some of the games were ok iirc. Some of the ones I remember were Beam Rider which was a nice little shoot em up, Fred a sort of platform game and Gilligans Gold which was another platform game and was great fun. I'm sure you could ride in mine carts and things.

Anyone remember any of the other games?

Also had the Band Aid song "Do They Know It's Christmas?" on the tape...

I'd forgotten about the song being on there. I quite liked Gumshoe as well. It was a sort of Elevator Action clone wasn't it?
Kokotoni Wilf was hard work if I remember.
Star Trader I don't remember at all.

Gilligan's Gold was a clone of an old arcade game called Bagitman, don't know how Ocean got away with that one...
