Attention Amiga freaks!

19 February 2002, 00:30

Ok, I'm looking to dig up some of the Amiga games I played really long ago, but I hardly remember them, and I have no idea what they were called, so it's REALLY hard, could someone help me recognize these game?

One is a puzzle game where you play this.. thing.. which has to move through some rooms I think, and you can only move in a certain way and you had to like reverse the room (so holes become hills, etc.) at the correct positions in order to get through the rooms.

Another game, I don't remember well at all, in fact, I don't even remember what it played like, I remember it looked sort of adventure game like, the character looks like some kind of astronaut I think and, uh, walks through some rooms and.. does stuff.. I think it had teleporters, if that help...

as you can hear, I don't have much of a chance of finding these games, but if anyone here has any idea what games they could be, please tell me

Mmm - I'd go for Manix

CodyJarrett · 19 February 2002, 00:37

and Exile

(1) Cody could be right.
But it could also be Contraption Zack.
Far-fetched, but do you also have a screenshot from this one, Cody?

CodyJarrett · 19 February 2002, 00:58

Yup - sounds like a very reasonable suggestion!

Wild stab in the dark, but maybe this could be Deep Core

Dizzy · 19 February 2002, 01:48

What about D-Generation or mayby Atic Atac

Drake1009 · 19 February 2002, 07:28

Did attic attak have teleporters?

And if it was holes which turned into hills then I don't really think it would be manix. Sounds terribly interesting though.

CodyJarrett · 19 February 2002, 08:48

Could be!

CodyJarrett · 19 February 2002, 08:49

And here's Deep Core

CodyJarrett · 19 February 2002, 08:51

And Treasure Trap (diving suit == space suit)

20 February 2002, 21:01

!!!!
I think Globulus might be it!
I'll give it a try, I hope you people enjoyed the challenge, so I didn't trouble you ;P

As for the astronaut kind of game, it's definitely not any of those, but I can say so little about it that there's probably no chance that I'll ever find it :/

CodyJarrett · 20 February 2002, 21:19

Was the astronaut game viewed isometrically, from above or from the side?

23 February 2002, 17:56

Isometric.. actually it appeared more like a standard adventure game with a side view of a "3D" room.. and the main character probably had nothing to do with an astronaut, that's just how I remember it

andreas · 23 February 2002, 22:48

Ahhh ... seems I got it now.
Not the game, but at least the view.

Sumez, was the view about the same like in CADAVER?

Definitely not.

If it wasn't Globulus at all, it might be Bombuzal.
Mr Jarrett, may I ask you for another screenshot, please?

Well, I didn't read that anywhere, so...
