''Amstrad Action'' neglected to mention that ''Simon'' only works on CPC664 and CPC6128 machines, due to its use of commands that are only available in BASIC 1.1. This was noted in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 15, Dec 1986|December 1986]] issue (#15), and they offered "apologies to any frustrated 464 users." A reply to a letter from a reader that was published in the [[Amstrad Action, Issue 16, Jan 1987|Christmas 1986]] issue (#16) also stated that the type-in only works on CPC664 and CPC6128 machines.
 
''Simon'' also contains a minor bug; when entering the playing speed, you must enter <tt>F</tt> or <tt>S</tt> in upper case. The program does not accept lower case letters. ''Amstrad Action'' did not print a correction in any subsequent issues.
 
The Problem Attic section of this issue contains a feature on vertical and horizontal hardware scrolling, which includes several example type-ins.

From this issue, the Type-Ins section was expanded to five pages, allowing many more type-ins to be published in each issue. A new typesetting process was also used in order to make them easier for users to enter correctly.
