This issue of SAM Revival features an 8 page news section, catching up with what's happening in the SAM scene. Feature articles this issue include 'Creating Mayhem' - a look at the behind the scenes development of the forthcoming Mayhem Accelerator (which will boost the speed of the SAM Coupe up to 20MHz!) and also looks at general development work on SAM hardware here at Quazar HQ. Another article 'Bogomips' looks at creating a benchmark program to measure the speed of the SAM, which has proved to be very useful when comparing the speed of the SAM to that when using the Mayhem Accelerator prototypes.
On the coverdisk with this issue, is the full SAM game "Mage Fire", a 'chaos' style game with 4 wizards (either real players or CPU controlled opponents) fighting against each other till only one survives, with a whole hoard of creatures that can be summoned up and an arsenal of spells to use for defence and attack. The game also features additional sound effects if you have a Quazar Surround soundcard for your SAM Coupe.
