WHITE CITY

The hare stands by the traps in which the greyhounds peer with
gleaming eyes down the floodlit track.

STOCKS & SHARES (aka. Bulls & Bears)

Speculate on the stock market in Bulls and Bears, for the 48K Spectrum.
  The idea is to buy at a low price and sell when shares rocket, but
do not let that stop you making intuitive moves in a sliding market.
  The game, written by N.T. Morgan of Dorchester, was a runner-up in
the 1984 Cambridge Awards.

ISOLATION

Claustrophobia grows as your space shrinks in Isolation by James Shaw
of Liff on Tayside. The game is for two players and the object is to
corner your opponent.
  Each player may move one space and then block in a square which then
becomes impassable to both. Play continues until one player is unable
to move. Moves can be diagonal as well as horizontal or vertical.
Isolation runs on the 16K Spectrum.

WINDOW-81
by John Mitchell
from Sinclair User 35 (February 1985)

Creating and scrolling windows on the screen has always been the
province of the QL. Window-81, a utility from John Mitchell of
Doncaster, for the 16K ZX-81, puts four windows on the screen and gives
a demonstration of scroll in all four. Each window is invoked using
machine code calls, a list of which are shown in lines two to five. For
example, if you want to scroll window A type RAND USR 16514 in your
program.

GOBLIN MATHS (ZX-81)
by A J Parkhouse
from Sinclair User 35 (February 1985), page 104

The Goblins are out to get you but you cannot fight back and escape in your
helicopter until you answer all the sums supplied by the 16K ZX-81.

In this two part educational game, by A J Parkhouse of Liverpool, you play
the ghost with an arithmetic turn of mind. It may be one for the children but
that does not mean adults won't learn something.
