Teenage Queen is one of the best early strip poker games ever developed for the Amiga, Atari ST, Amstrad CPC and DOS. There is also an Apple IIGS version that was never officially released.

Review

STORY / GAMEPLAY
The game's story is quite short. Besides, this is a strip poker game. So you play strip poker with a beautiful and very hot French female roller-skater you met in a park! Your purpose is to play a poker game, earn all the money bet and finally make the the girl strip off her clothes for some more money. The game ends either with your loss or with the girl left broke and totally naked. So it's understandable that you may need some poker skills and knowledge regarding the cards and their winning combinations (like the Straight Flush for instance).

GRAPHICS / SOUND
The graphics on the Amstrad CPC look awesome for its time and Teenage Queen is probably the most appealing strip poker game for the CPC. Of course the CPC version cannot compare to the more powerful 16bit home versions but nevertheless it's a very fun and technically cool strip poker! The sound is great and includes both sound effects and in-game music (note that the 16bit version include sound effects only), which is a surprise indeed!

Hardware information

Amstrad CPC 464/664/6128

CPU: ZiLOG Z80 4MHZ
MEMORY: 64 KB or 128 KB of RAM depending on the model (capable of being expanded to 512k using memory extension boards)
GRAPHICS: Motorola 6845 address generator, Mode 0: 160x200 / 16 colors, Mode 1: 320x200 / 4 colors, Mode 2: 640x200 / 2 colors, A colour palette of 27 colors was supported
SOUND: The CPC used the General Instrument AY-3-8912 sound chip, providing 3 channels Mono Sound (via internal speaker) but capable to offer Stereo Sound provided through a 3.5 mm headphones jack (with pretty impressive outcome!). Also, it is possible to play back digital sound samples at a resolution of approximately 5bit. This technique is very processor-intensive though.
