The toys from Play School have come alive! With Hamble as their evil leader, they have captured you in the Play School house. You must make your way to the exit to escape - but on your journey, they will force you to play evil and fiendish games to survive.

Hamble's House of Horror is based on games such as Nightmare Park and Spectrum Safari. There are 8 randomised mini-games to play as you move through the house. The 3 difficulty levels adjust the frequency of the games, an each has a different ending. Can you get through on the most difficult for the ultimate reward?

Use the cursors to move and follow the instructions for each of the mini-games.

Hi, I’m contacting you because I want to make a homebrew tribute USB. I’m collecting as many content creators as possible. I also want to include a profile for each one, with a few details, such as their logo, avatar, name, work completed, projects, etc., so you can see who’s behind their creations.

That profile, along with any material you allow me to upload, will be placed on a USB drive. This will act as a database of creators and their creations, and will be updated as I connect with new people.

The USB I’m thinking of creating will be one of those rubber-type USBs, shaped like a Spectrum computer, something that looks really nice. The idea is that those who contribute material, and if they want to buy one or more, will get it at cost price, and those who just want to buy one, it will cost a little more.

The idea is that if enough are sold, enough to recover the initial investment, the profits that the rest of the USBs could generate will be distributed among the people who have contributed material to the project, via transfer, PayPal, or however possible, even if possible, that the USB will be free. Obviously, you can buy more than one, but only one of them can be free.

It’s not necessary or mandatory to buy the USB, only if you like it or want it.

If you’re interested in this project, you can contact me at this email, flopping@gmail.com. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know and I’ll answer them. Do you think the idea is a good one? Would you like to participate in the project? Let me know. Best regards.

Juan.

Wow, just WOW!  Like I was thrown in a room at Automata and the makers of Children Of The Corn.  Fun by warped.  I loved it.  kekeke as they did in the game!

How to open game? I see only .bas file and it is not supported by Speccy or Fuse.

It's for the Spectrum Next. You'll need a Next emulator like Cspect to run it.

Thanks. I will try.
