#3 James Bond 007: A View to a Kill (1985) Overall, it has some good ideas and great music, but is ruined by the awful controls. In the platforming mission, the jump button opens a menu if you're not moving fast enough. In the adventure mission, using or searching for items is finicky and unintuitive. In the driving mission, you constantly get stuck in walls when going around corners. The variety is great, but the game falls down when it comes to controls. The final mission is a platforming level where you must jump around a dangerous mine to defuse a bomb. The second mission revolves around rescuing Stacey Sutton from a burning city hall, and plays like a point-and-click adventure. Split into three missions, you begin by racing around Paris in a taxi to try and catch a parachuting May Day. A View to a Kill was an action game released for the ZX Spectrum by Domark, and was one of two identically titled games released in 1985.
