Overview

Written by Gary Penn with Sensible Software co-founder Jon Hare, Sensible Software 1986–1999 charts the rise and fall of the influential UK developer. From Wizball on the C64 to Sensible Soccer and Cannon Fodder on the Amiga, the book traces the studio’s distinctively irreverent output through interviews with Hare, Martin Galway, Peter Molyneux, and others. Illustrated with game artwork, development materials, and glimpses of unreleased projects, it captures a true British original at the heart of Amiga-era gaming.

Reviews
As entertaining to read as it is well designed, Sensible Software 1986–1999 is a rare kind of videogame-related publication: a book rich with substance as well as style.
Den of Geek
A brilliant read from start to finish … It’s not just a videogame history lesson, it’s a glimpse into the lives of the people behind the games that so many of us have grown up with.
