What are the best Amiga Public Domain/Shareware games?
What do you think are the best Amiga PD/Shareware games?
Do you maybe know any obscure PD gems? I forgot about most of the weird/obscure PD games I used to have back in the day... what's out there? I will start with these gems, although they are well well known  1. Llamatron 2. Spacetaxi 3 3. Achtung! Die Kurve 4. Airtaxi 5. Sneech 6. Masterblaster |

I avoided PD games like the plague, except Llamatron. I suppose I might have missed out on some gems, but I'm not really kicking myself.

Another couple... Extreme Violence - Great little two-player versus shooter. Star Woids - Demo only, I wish this had been made into a full game!

Missed some great ones:
Knights (the BEST 2 player ACTION) - the older version with the cool intro music is better Colonial Conquest Biplanes As above: TotalChaosAGA |

Will need a hell lot of time to download & check all of them!
... would be nice if people posting their favorites would upload'em to "DaZona" too, but I'm *not* suggesting anything...

Aminet and WHDLoad Pack by KG could be the main sources.
