Charlie Chimp - locating missing games in the series

[DamienD]

Heya guys,

I'm looking to possibly add all "Charlie Chimp" games to my WinUAE collection:

HOL lists these:

... Charlie Chimp
... Charlie Chimp II: Monkey Mayhem
... Charlie Chimp: Special Edition '97
... Charlie The Xmas Chimp

Amiga Format - Coverdisk 87b contains "Charlie Chimp and the Treasure of Tutankhamun" which is not listed on HOL...

Plus, from booting / looking at the slide show there are also these shown:













Anyone know where to find these?

[Retro1234]

Are they with the Reality construction kit? maybe on some coverdisks.......

It's called "Charlie Chimp 2 Special Edition 96" ..... in the zone !

Bye, chip

I did see this in the "Charlie Chimp and the Treasure of Tutankhamun" slide show but forgot to mention...

[DamienD]

There is also "Charlie Chimp Remix".

This is apparently on Amiga Action - Issue 82 - May 1996 (Disk 1) but the disk is not available for download...

Anyone have this?

[DamienD]

Ok, where's that prowler gotten too?

Hi Damien,

No worries, mate, I still have both the original disk and the image I recovered from it.

I shall be seeking out my old hard drive from 2009 in connection with another enquiry I have received by PM, so I should be able to upload that image for you soon with any luck.

[DamienD]

*** Fixed your post above my friend as the quotes / double quotes didn't quite work ***

Heya prowler,

Oh, that is great news indeed!!! Knew I could count on you

...unfortunately you must have originally uploaded these slightly after I went AWOL for 6+ years so hence why I don't have them already

[DamienD]

...also, anyone know where to grab Charlie Chimp: Special Edition '97 from?

chip has already provide "Charlie Chimp: Special Edition '96"

Thanks, mate. I've just looked at my offline copy of this page and I see what you mean.

[DamienD]

Ok, this is a friggin' knightmare...

Anyway, so far I have these disks (some I have renamed accordingly; hopefully correctly):

• Charlie Chimp (1993)(Europress)[AMOS].adf
• Charlie Chimp and the Great Escape (1997)(AMOS)[Amiga Format].adf
• Charlie Chimp and the Treasure of Tutankhamun & SeeMore DooLittle's Toyland Caper's (1996)(AMOS)[Amiga Format #087].adf [couldn't modify the disk to boot straight into the game without loosing the title screen so left it original; damn it]
• Charlie Chimp II - Monkey Mayhem (1994)(Europress)[AMOS].adf
• Charlie Chimp II - Special Edition '96 (1996)(AMOS)[Amiga User International].adf
• Charlie The Xmas Chimp (1993)(AMOS)[Amiga Action #52].adf [modified the disk to boot straight into the game so you cannot select "Campaign 2"]

In The Zone! for anyone that wants them

Charlie Chimp - games left to find:

1) Charlie Chimp and the Stolen Crown Jewels
2) Charlie Chimp and the City of Atlantis
3) Charlie Chimp - Special Edition '96
4) Charlie Chimp - Special Edition '97
5) Charlie Chimp Remix

[Retro1234]

97 is on the file server http://grandis.nu:81/eabsearch/searc...xclude=&limit=

I think I have one somewhere called Charlies Chomp - just a snap like game.

[DamienD]

Thanks for the info Retro; if you have find "Charlies Chomp" that would be cool also

[hipoonios]

I played a Charlie Chimp game not long ago, but can not find it now. It was like Dizzy and it is not Treasure of Tutankhamun or Great Escape. So must have been Stolen Crown Jewels or City of Atlantis. The only thing I remember was that I got stuck in a room with a dude in a big chair.

Will hopefully find it again someday...

[DamienD]

It it's either "Charlie Chimp and the Stolen Crown Jewels" or "Charlie Chimp and the City of Atlantis" then I hope you find it too my friend
