'''''Computer Gamer''''' was a [[video game]] [[video game magazine|magazine]] published in the [[United Kingdom]] by [[Argus Specialist Publications]], covering home gaming duringfrom theApril 1985 to lateJune 1980s1987. It was a colourful relaunch of the failing "Games Computing", a more conservative magazine published throughout in monochrome.
 
When the magazine was relaunched, it was directly competing with [[Computer and Video Games]] but with only a fifth of the 100,000 monthly sales. It battled on for two years but, although it added 40,000 sales, it was eventually closed in 1987.
 
Like many similar magazines, it contained sections of news, game reviews, previews, tips, help guides, columnists, reader's letters, and occasionally cover-mounted [[game demos]].
