Werewolves of London is a video game released in 1987 for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and the Amstrad CPC. It was released on a cassette with the Amstrad version on one side and the Spectrum version on the other, this scheme being referred to as "Flippy". The game used the same engine as Viz Design's (consisting of Steve Howard and Paul Smith) other game Frankenstein Junior which was released by Codemasters in the same year. The game was released two years late (and largely unfinished) and was as a budget title, as intended. Publisher Ariolasoft ceased trading and the game was subsequently released by Mastertronic. It was also released in Spain by Dro Soft.

  • Werewolves of London è un videogioco pubblicato nel 1987 per Amstrad CPC da Viz Design, un marchio appartenente alla filiale britannica della Ariolasoft. L'uscita di versioni per Commodore 64 e ZX Spectrum era prevista poco dopo, ma la Ariolasoft UK cessò le attività e queste edizioni vennero pubblicate solo più tardi da Mastertronic, nel 1988-1989. Il protagonista è un licantropo che si aggira per la città e quando ha sembianze di lupo può divorare persone, mentre la polizia gli dà la caccia.Il titolo può essere un riferimento alla canzone Werewolves of London, che viene brevemente riprodotta nella schermata dei titoli. L'edizione originale della Viz Design per Amstrad include anche una cassetta audio con il brano d'atmosfera Werewolf Rap mixato da Silver Bullet (in realtà non un rap, ma un brano strumentale).La versione Spectrum e la riedizione per Amstrad della Mastertronic erano vendute insieme, su due lati della stessa cassetta. Le versioni Amstrad e Spectrum sono accreditate a Steve Howard e Paul Smith, autori anche di (1987), che ha delle somiglianze di stile, tanto che Werewolves of London si potrebbe considerare un suo successore non ufficiale.
