Custard Pie

Sinclair ZX Spectrum - Released - 1985

Not to be confused with the Amstrad CPC game of the same name (which is a platformer) Custard Pie for the ZX Spectrum is a word game similar to Hangman originally designed for the 16K Spectrum. This game was developed by Michael Slive and published as a type-in listing in 16/48 Tape Magazine (UK) - within e-magazine "16/48 Magazine Tape 17" in 1985. Instead of a traditional hangman character, the player "plays" a clown in which you have to guess the word before your face gets covered in a pie.
