The solution to The Thompson Twins Adventure on ZX Spectrum

I recently talked about it, I got the game The Thompson Twins Adventure for ZX Spectrum. And since the only walkthrough I’ve seen is for the Commodore 64 version, I took the opportunity to take some screenshots. So here’s a little guide.

Tip: you can use N, S, W, and E for NORTH, SOUTH, WEST, and EAST. There are also some optional commands (the magazine, INSPECT commands) but it’s not very important. I didn’t try to tell a story: it’s just the list of commands needed to get through, because the game is really poor.

Starting Beach

WEST, GET NEWSPAPER, READ NEWSPAPER, DROP NEWSPAPER, SOUTH

The Forest

GET JAR, INSPECT JAR, UP

GET KITE, INSPECT KITE, DOWN

Back to the Forest

The House

The End!
