Absolutly "must play" Amiga games?

10 March 2007, 23:26

Hi im new to the Amiga scene started today with Yoyoe Zool etc and have a question what are the Must play Amiga games? please list all good games i love retro

StrategyGamer · 10 March 2007, 23:50

Turrican 2, Superfrog, Lionheart, Battle Squadron, Hybris, SlamTilt, Banshee, MANY others.

fisken uno · 10 March 2007, 23:53

I'm not sure about "must play" but my all time favorites that I always keep going back to are Super Cars I & II, Twin World, P.P. Hammer, Pirates (Original Floppy Version) as well as just about every Sierra and Lucasfilm/Lucasarts game. It all pretty much depends on what genres you're into etc. I'm sure you can find threads with polls and stuff if you do some searching on the board

EDIT: How could I forget Sensible Soccer and Cannon Fodder? :O

DamienD · 11 March 2007, 00:44

Very, very quick post...

Flashback, Another World, Super Cars series, Shadow of the Beast series, any Cinemaware / Team 17 / Core / Psygnosis games. Check Hall of Light i.e. http://hol.abime.net/...

More to follow tomorrow

BippyM · 11 March 2007, 09:44

Captive, Captive, Captive and I heartily recommend Captive

clarencebeaks · 11 March 2007, 10:17

Let me see, IK+, another world, golden axe, F/18 Interceptor the best
flight simulator on the Amiga for it's time, in my opinion

AH yes cannon
fodder,blood money and xenon 2.

Lastly operation thunderbolt.

DDNI · 11 March 2007, 10:29

Mercenary (all of them, all day) of course!

clarencebeaks · 11 March 2007, 10:45

Hi ,
I wasn't sure where to post this , so my apologese if this is the wrong area.
I am playing another world, a copy, how do I put the password code in, instead of playing all the way up to where I have acheived?

I'm sure
this sounds nuts and the answer is probably straight forward.

alexh · 11 March 2007, 10:48

If you like RPG style games, DungeonMaster, Amberstar & Ambermoon.

If you are die hard RPG fan (like me) perhaps Eye of the Beholder 1-3, Captive, Liberation, Bloodwych.

... Flashback (1992)(U.S. Gold)[!].rar

... Another World...

Faerytale · 13 March 2007, 22:47

Why not the beautiful "Faery tale adventure"??

Sune Salminen · 14 March 2007, 03:28

Typhoon Thompson
Datastorm
The Sentinel
Super Gridrunner
Wicked
Hybris and its sequel Battle Squadron
Interphase
Nebulus
Stunt Car Racer
Turrican I & II
Firepower (was one of the first games for the Amiga - play it with a friend!)

The Amiga had some impressive arcade ports as well (like Rainbow Islands, New Zealand Story, Marble Madness, Silkworm and Arkanoid I & II) but since you can play those in MAME now, what's the point. Unless you have a real Amiga of course.
