Paradroid: A Vintage Classic Reimagined

David Fischer

03/05/2025

Paradroid revives the intense action and strategy of its 1985 predecessor, offering gamers a nostalgia-filled experience combined with modern enhancements.

Paradroid, released in the UK in 1985 for 8-bit personal computers, is often regarded as one of the iconic games of the 1980s. Its impact on the gaming landscape during that era has been significant and enduring.

The Paradroid app can be acquired as an in-app purchase within the Elite Collection app, priced at £0.69/€0.79/US$0.99. This purchase may also grant access to additional 8-bit games.

For those interested, Paradroid is available as a standalone application as well. While it does not include other titles, it features an infinite lives mode that enhances the gaming experience.

This app closely mirrors the original 8-bit game crafted by Andrew Breybrook and published by Hewson Consultants. It is presented as an officially licensed product, leveraging Elite Collection technology to ensure a faithful representation of the classic.

Key features include:

Portrait and landscape play/display modes
User-definable iDaptive controls for joystick, keypad, and canvas
Auto save functionality upon exiting the game
Authentic 'Spectrum' sound reproduction

Elite Systems Ltd was established in England in 1984, building a reputation for bringing classic gaming experiences to modern platforms.
