‘Ninja Grannies’ (Spectrum) recovered - December 23, 2009

The guys at World of Spectrum have just worked with Dean Hickingbottom to recover remains of a rather neat little game called ‘Ninja Grannies’ which was developed by Clockwise Developments.  Well, its a one on one beat-em-up which isn’t Street Fighter 2, but its quite a comical little game.

Unfortunately no publishers wanted the game, and so it remained unpublished.  Spectrum and CPC versions were developed in parallel, and its believed a C64 version was also in development (Of which an entry exists on GTW64).  Hopefully other versions will follow through in the future.
