Smile Amiga Downloads, Reviews etc.

Hey all,

I've just opened my website, the Games Coffer. http://www.games-coffer.co.uk

On it you will find Amiga Games, downloads, reviews and more.

I was the original author of the World of Classics - an Amiga/C64 website that was around some years back. I've taken some of the content from that and revamped it into another site. This new site will have regular updates and will cover many different platforms.

Its in an early stage at the moment, so any bugs or problems with downloads, then please let me know.

That's probably the reason.

All documentation for commerical downloads can be found in the Legal section a long with replies for the respective games companies/publishers.

Unhappy

I'd just like to echo the sentiments of the guys above - this is a great site! I'll be downloading some stuff later (we have a 'filter' on our internet usage at work...)

Any chance that you might be adding Sim Brick by Sensible Soccer at some point in the future? I remember it from an Amiga Mag coverdisk (dunno which though) and I loved it! Sadly, I've never managed to track down a working copy since.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

Hello all and thanks for the feedback, more updates will follow soon (I'm working on some as we speak, a long with some minor issues).

Simbrick.. Hmmm never heard of that, I will have to go on a little hunt for that one.

With regards to Sim Brick. I have just done some reasearch. It was part of a Sensible Software collection on issue number 13 of Amiga Power. It seems to not be around at all and I think the reason for this is that the disk was copy protected.

Nice site. I found it..interesting that the top download is Strip Poker 3, and not by a small margin.

Just downloaded quite a few games from your excellent site that I remember having on my real miggies, but thought you might like to know that the BCKid download doesn't work.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news (and it's always possible with my admittedly not very good PC that the problem is mine), but the zip file has CRC errors and the 2 adfs don't decompact properly.

Excellent site though! I'm off to play Alien Fish Finger now!!!

Excellent site

Nice and easy to navigate - straight forward as they all should be

Gonna have a browse tomorrow as its getting late now, and then test a few of your downloads on my new winuae pc setup!.... i'm used to using my real amiga and not emulated ones so i will see how it turns out

As mentioned by TheCyberDruid, there are some rare or obscure games ive never heard of too.... this site is well worth checking out

Funny how those kind of things always seems to top lists like that by an absolute mile. Shows where people's priorities really are
And on the Amiga of all places? There's easier ways to get this stuff, guys!

Nice work on the site there mate, although that's got to be the most optimistic review of Brad Stallion I've ever seen.
