Subject: UK magazine-alert: Miner Willy's Retirement Home

 

Issue 122 of Retro Gamer magazine features a paper JSW game named Miner Willy's Retirement Home, pieced together by Martyn Carroll, consisting entirely of the extra rooms from the Your Sinclair remix, JSW Editor Mk2, and official non-Spectrum JSW games.

The four-page article has a screenshot of each room, forming a map of 3 rows and 12 columns (the West Wing on pp.40–41, the East Wing on pp.42–43). The lower half of each page has a paragraph to describe each room.

Here is the complete list of rooms, and their [column, row] map coordinates (there are no rooms at the four corners of the map):
