With games like these, a lot of the time you have to rely on manuals, such as Spanish MCM re-release, which credits both activision and software studios.
I would hope think it's simply a case of forgetting to include this information on the title screen. World of Spectrum is very good at flagging up alternative versions of ZX Spectrum games (if they exist) and that isn't the case here. It's likely just a case of rogue developers choosing not to credit Activision (or forgetting), and nobody doing anything about it.
All of these home computers are a confusing mess. -Black Squirrel 19:22, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
