The computer versions reached the shops under Ocean in spring 1990, months after their reviews. Zzap!64 wrote in May 1990 that Ocean had finally got the Commodore 64 and Amiga conversions into the shops over six months after it first reviewed them, recalled their marks of 92% each, and suggested a Gold Medal might have been deserved. Amiga Format's May 1990 review said the conversion had "finally arrived on the Ocean label", and The One wrote in April 1990 that the game, first revealed in its pages over a year before and reviewed six months later, had only now been released.p. 7, news (image 7)p. 7 (image 7)p. 7 (image 7)Magazine
