Twister, also known as Twister: Mother of Charlotte or just Mother of Charlotte, is a shooting game developed by Chris Yates and Jon Hare for Sensible Software and published by System 3 for the ZX Spectrum in 1986. It was originally developed as Mother of Harlots but was renamed after a controversy regarding the title and sexualized promotion with skimpily dressed dancers at an industry event,[1][2][3][4][5][6] and a planned Commodore 64 version was never released.[7] The game received positive reviews from Aktueller Software Markt,[8] Crash,[9] Sinclair User,[10] and Your Sinclair.[11]
