Sabreman is a series of action-adventure games developed and published by Ultimate Play the Game for the ZX Spectrum in the 1980s. Some of the instalments were also released on other popular home microcomputers, namely the Amstrad CPC, BBC Micro, Commodore 64, and MSX. The series stars Sabreman, who is depicted wearing khakis and a pith helmet. While the series went dormant after the sale of Ultimate Play The Game, the developer's successor Rare would release a remake of the original game on the Game Boy Advance. Microsoft owns the series through its acquisition of Rare under Xbox Game Studios.
