Helpful hint: the entirety of the Computer Gaming World archive is
available (legitimately!) online. You can read every issue at
https://www.cgwmuseum.org/

I own a lot of issues of CGW but I do not have them all. Thank you for
the link. It is now bookmarked forever.

Well, if you like that, wait until you get a load of these:

- Questbusters
       https://archive.org/details/questbusters

- Computer Game Review

https://archive.org/search?query=Computer+Game+Review.&page=2

- Electronic Games Magazine
     https://archive.org/search?query=electronic+games

- Strategy Plus
       https://archive.org/search?query=Strategy+Plus

- Crash Magazine
       https://archive.org/search?query=crash+magazine

- GameBytes *
       https://archive.org/details/GameBytesMagazine **

- Interactive Entertainment *

https://archive.org/search?query=interactive+entertainment



I have purposefully left PC Gamer off the list because it's still a
going concern (and, if I recall, they sell access to their
back-issues). But all the rest are defunct magazines so I've little
qualm pointing to where their content is available online.

Congratulations. You can now read like its 1991 again! ;-)

the specific review.
