oh damn, thank you for posting this! I had one of these as a kid but could never remember exactly which one it was but that jogged the memory instantly
Merry Christmas :D
Still have mine!
I wish I still had mine. 3D monster maze, 1k chess, nightgunner, gulpman.
My neighbor had a zx80. I remember playing a game on that too, but i don’t remember what it was.
Did you build it yourself? It looks awesome!
Added pictures to the root post. Check it out

Mine, highly modded, inside a gutted Atari 400 box. Has a homemade hi-res module 256x192, Sound board AY-3-8912, homemade keyboard, modified ROM with extra functions, dual boot with assembly compiler, 10KB ROM, 6KB Static RAM, 16KB Dynamic RAM.
I love the putting it in a gutted A400.
TheTimex Sinclair (assembled) was marketed as the first home computer for under a hundred bucks ($99). A buddy of mine ran a BBS dedicated the Sinclair. He ran it on a Commador 64
