Amtix was a relatively short-lived magazine published in the U.K. dedicated to Amstrad computers, mostly covering gaming. Most from North America probably aren't familiar with Amstrad computers but they were quite popular in the U.K. in the 1980s and early 1990s. Issue number 1 from November 1985 includes:
