Besides the Italian original issue, the PDF magazine REV'n'GE ("Retro Emulator Vision and Game") is also available in English. The magazine's reviews compare, if available, the different ports of classic games to the various platforms of their time. Furthermore a focus is on rather unknown retro games.

The latest issue 169 includes tests of "Archon" and "Murder Makes Strange Deadfellows" for CDTV.

All the Adventures have seen several high-flying stunts of impossible programming. But how about an adventure with graphics, sound, and animation on an unmodified VIC-20?

Using BASIC, a grand total of 3,500 bytes are available.

It is astonishing this exists.
