Alter Ego: DreamWalker is the sequel to the 2011 action puzzle platform title Alter Ego. In this game, you have a phantom 'alter ego' that mirrors all your moves (either horizontally or vertically) from across the screen. You can switch between the hero and his alter ego a limited number of times in each level, in order to avoid enemies and reach otherwise inaccessible positions. The ZX-Spectrum version uses multicolor, a software technique to combine more colours than normally possible without colour clash.

Yazzie is a homebrew platform game with some puzzle elements. It was originally created as a ZX Spectrum title for the Yandex Retro Games Battle 2019 where it took third place. Later it was ported to other platforms. It consists of several levels, mostly a single screen with slight scrolling near the edges, where a gold digger needs to collect all the gold bars in the environment to complete the level. As soon as all gold is collected the level ends right away.

Each level represents a room in a mansion, with several platforms, ladders and hazards such as fire. There are enemies moving over the platforms and they are able to use ladders. There are free-roaming flying creatures as well. A single encounter with an enemy or a hazard is immediately deadly and makes the level restart. There are no ways to attack the enemies, they can only be avoided.

A lot of the gameplay revolves around luring the enemies away in a certain direction so you can pass and grab the gold on the other side. There are platforms where it is possible to drop down through them right away. Certain pieces of gold can only be reached through digging. Pickaxes can be picked up in certain levels and they allow the character to dig down once per axe. Other game elements are bridges that can be activated and timed explosions that can be triggered to clear a part of then environment. After a certain number of levels a password is provided.

Museum Guide is an advergame made for History Worth Playing, a campaign for the Computer Spiele Museum of Berlin in Germany. The game was written to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the museum and the 35th anniversary of the ZX Spectrum.

The game is set in the museum, where some games have gone missing. The player has to locate the games and bring them back to the correct exhibit. The museum consists of several single-screen rooms connected both horizontally and vertically to offer a large amount of exploration. Items such as discs, boards, and cartridges can be picked up and stored in an inventory with room for four items. There they can be examined and then the player has to find the correct exhibit to put it back. Both items and exhibits have descriptions that can be read for some more information about video game history.
