At least, if someone could do Master of Magic, it would be awesome.
Same company, same (or very similar) engine, very similar gameplay, and the game is released when Commodore crashed, so I guess it would worked on many faster Amiga's.

I am still wondering why MOO has been not released for Amiga?
It's released in 1993, so, Amiga was very popular, Commodore didn't bankrupt yet, and there was AGA.

The massive amount of Japanese arcade games that were never converted. For example Toaplan shoot em ups.

I can see some people mentioned games from 1996 so going to name a game also from same time ... Microprose Grand Prix 2. If i remember well I used to play this game on a 100mhz Pentium 1 with 32mb of ram, so wonder if such a game was possible on Amiga with expansions availe at same time.

Toaplan first generation hardware actually received some conversions o A500but sadly all were bad. I'm not sure if A1200 could handle faithfully those games. Second generation hardware was far too powerfull even for amiga 1200.

I think these days it does not matter. Everyone have PC that can handle MAME.

Starquake and/or Wizard's lair

Both well polished and very fast/playable "collect em ups" on the 8 bit machines, which would benefit from more colours and good sound fx (not that they wern't good for the spectrum at the time, but could improve)

BTW did Stephen Crow ever program for the Amiga??

Years ago I surely missed conversions for Cadash (forced to play on Megadrive - good port) Rastan (Apple IIGS conversion exists just like PC) and Rygar (in the works right now), Iron Horse (it was never converted to other platforms?).

Not the same as a unique version to the Amiga though.

I did buy Settlers II (and 3 and 4!) for the PC, the 2nd one was always the best in the series for imo.

Plus if wanted to emulate i would use my PC in any case.

Necroposting, but it's a funny thought as I don't think even a stock A1200 could handle the amount of sprites that game threw around. =( Amiga hardware just never paid the amount of attention to fast tile and sprite mapping that the Japanese consoles did.

From PC: Settlers II naturally (mentioned here so many times), Command and Conquer, Turrican II (better graphics, should fit Amiga 1200 nicely), Legend of Kyrandia 2 and 3, Civilization II, Caesar II, Theme Hospital, Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth
