Was this C64 classic ever released on the Amiga?

Well, since I´m a "They stole a Million"-Fan since some years, I´m pretty sure it wasn´t

I remember, after getting an Amiga and played the above game for ages on my CPC before, I wanted it despirately, but according to a Computer Mag back those days, they (Ariolasoft) refused to make a conversion to Amiga and also didn´t wanted to sell the rights on the product, so the first game on Amiga in that kind of Style was "Der Clou"

You said the first game on the Amiga was der clou (or the clue which is the english translated version). Does that mean there are similar games available?

Uhhh, some kind of missunderstanding here, I claim THE CLOU to be a sequel to THEY STOLE A MILLION 1 + 2, so out of THIS series, THE CLOU was the first to be published on Amiga .... I personally don´t know of any other games of that style, but if anyone got other Info, I will be pleased to hear them

BTTR just uploaded the profile disks, an expansion of sorts, to this fabulous game. Try getting it here. Remember, you need the German version to use it.
