We've featured the 1983 game of 'Tapper' a number of times now, as not only did it appear as a brilliant Arcade to Amiga conversion by Old_Bob, but it also appeared on the ZX Spectrum as a tapper clone by the name of 'Cobra Laser'. Well as a new Tapper update and not related to the Amiga or the ZX Spectrum. We've been told by both Saberman and XeNoMoRPH, that Fitosoft has released the Amstrad CPC Tapper clone of 'Bar War'. A game in which the creator has said "is another programming exercise using the 8BP library to handle sprites."
Here's the latest from the website. "In Bar War, the player will enter the character launched in 1983 by Bally Midway where he must serve beer to eager and thirsty customers, collect empty pitchers and accept tips. The number of serving bars may vary from level to level. The length of each bar will also change. When a customer enters the establishment, he or she will move to the position where the tap is located to enjoy a fresh pitcher".
"If the customer gets a beer, he will leave the establishment happy but he may prefer to stay and enjoy the drink and then order another one. In that case, that person will return the empty glass and you will be in charge of picking it up, otherwise the crockery will break and you will lose a life. Occasionally, a customer is benevolent and will leave you a tip. Take advantage of the occasion and go and pick it up. As compensation, we offer a good entertainment show and we will gain a life. If the customer reaches the end of the bar and has not been served, you will lose a life".
So if this sounds like your soft of game, make sure to check it out below!
