Looking for a math game, can't remember which!

toffo · 21 April 2011, 15:55

Hey all,

It just come to my mind that I had a math game when I had my A600HD back in the 90s. I can't really say much about it, so I'm more or less just searching for names that I could look up.

It sure isnt Discovery math / Math discovery.

The only thing I can remember about it is that it was light grey or blue-purplish.. Oh and there was some sort of greek letter on the startscreen, could it have been an Omega sign? Yeah definitely..

But I can't find any games on these terms, so therefore I'm wondering if some of you elite Amiga fans know which game it might have been?

Many thanks in advance!

// Chris

Hey everyone, (wow, lol btw)

Bumping this thread.. well exactly 3 years later.. haha.. didn't mean for exactly that.. but hey..

Anyhow, anyone stumbled upon the game I'm looking for? I've been looking for well at least 3-4 years now and still couldn't find the "game".

Could it be some software that came with a stock Amiga 600HD? I'm just lost!
Please help me out if you can

Maybe it's one of these?

Hey alkis21,
No unfortunately I've tried that when I wrote this thread at first, didn't seem to have any newcomers to that list and I couldn't find the game now either.

It's really strange, does the game exist? I'm confused.. but at the same time I remember how I got home from school and I remember exactly how the computer was setup on the desk, more or less what else I had on the desk and everything around.

It's a very clear memory, I know I played the game. But at the same it's so blurry because I can't find the game so it just feels like.. am I stupid?

But no, I know the game exists but it's so very strange that no one else have heard about it..

Many educational games are not in HOL.

toffo · 26 April 2014, 10:50

Aha ok, any idea where to search? Any good lists or search sites?

Well, if you are ready to go through a large list of Amiga games, hoping that reading the name of the game will rekindle your memory you can try the following:
http://obligement.free.fr/articles/listejeuxamiga.php

You can also try to search the listing of educational games on Mobygames (sorted by year):
http://www.mobygames.com/browse/game...1a/list-games/

With a bit of chance, even if the Amiga version is not there, the game will have been ported from/to another platform, so it might get listed there.

Omega Matematik was preinstalled on A600HD in Sweden (along with some other programs/games).
I don't have my A600HD connected now, otherwise i could have uploaded it somewhere.

toffo · 26 April 2014, 16:03

Oh my god fryguy! You recognize it!? I thought I would go insane!

Well it's sad that it's not connected, but if you someday would connect it I would be so happy if you would have time to upload it somewhere

Oh my, I'm amazed.. I'm.. I don't know what to say!

So strange that I can't find any info about that game with that name either.

Also, thanks lilaurl! I guess I won't have to now though.. But two really nice pages! I'll save them to my bookmarks, will surely be handy to have in the future

Yeah i used my A600 for some weeks ago, and tried it (Omega) out. I should try to dig out the A600 someday and upload it.

fryguy · 26 April 2014, 17:17

I was bored, it's in the zone now

It requires WB 2.x

toffo · 26 April 2014, 18:10

Aaaah! Thanks mate! Will have to transfer this over to my Amiga right away to have a look!

Thanks so much!

toffo · 26 April 2014, 19:06

Update.. Just tried it out and boy that was fun! I should probably spend more time in that game though..

Not exactly as I remember it, I do remember a bit of it, but I'm really certain in more than one way that this is what I was looking for so, wow..

THANK YOU fryguy!
