Someone has done a version of the classic game for the iPad. The controls are a bit odd though.

I've still got the Acorn version and the wife is going to a school re-union the weekend after next. 8-)

I think my save game is at Above Average or Competent

I reached Elite and nearly sent off the post-card to register...

...and then I noticed I was nearly 10 years past the deadline :lol:

I wonder if the C15 will still load :lol:

I remember playing Elite on the spectrum, wasn’t there a funny plastic reader you had to hold to the screen to decode the password?

There was for some Specy games. I don't know about Elite though.

Lenslock. Utterly useless as a protection mechanism, but almost as much fun as some of the games. according to wikipedia, Elite did use it.

I had Frontier: First Encounters as well. It was a bit bonkers with the way it tried to be too realistic with space flight.
