Amiga Action Issue 59 (July 1994) is a big, mixed “summer blockbuster” issue built around a flagship first review of Valhalla, sold as a speech-heavy, story-driven adventure with real atmosphere and personality. Around that headline, it leans hard into football coverage (including a chunky “Super Leagues” stats/info section and Sensible Soccer World Cup gossip), stacks up a strong set of full-price reviews (with a noticeable CD32 presence), and pads the practical side with long Player’s Guides—most notably a deep strip-down of Beneath a Steel Sky. The coverdisks go for immediate variety: a classic shoot-’em-up demo plus a puzzle game, and an exclusive platformer preview, while the rest of the magazine rounds out with reader reviews, PD picks, competitions, and the usual community pages.
