Manic Miner - 40th Anniversary

🎉 Manic Miner turns 40 - and what better way to celebrate than by taking on a brutal, special tribute version that pushes the legendary ZX Spectrum to its limits! This isn’t your grandad’s Manic Miner - this is a souped-up, pixel-perfect, painfully hard version that honors the classic while turning the difficulty up to 11.

Whether you grew up battling Eugene’s Lair or you’ve only just discovered the magic of the Spectrum through emulation or a MiSTer FPGA, this is a must-watch for retro gaming fans. From clunky jumps to perfectly timed platforming, this version is both a nostalgic trip and a test of gaming reflexes.

We’re diving headfirst into this 40th anniversary tribute - talking history, gameplay quirks, weird bugs, and all the pixel-perfect frustration that comes with it. Expect laughs, groans, and maybe even a few rage quits (no shame here).

This one’s for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum diehards, the preservationists using MiSTer FPGA, and anyone who appreciates the era when games didn’t hold your hand - they slapped it away.

👾 Think you're good at retro games? This version of Manic Miner might have something to say about that.
