all games should run on a A1200/8MB.

Some slaves have 512k to be able to run on 512k chip only, possibly with limitations. Not interesting for you.

Some games come in various versions. Example: Xenon 2 had 6 versions. Some have an intro, some don't. The tough part is figuring out which one is the best / less buggy

NTSC games can be run on PAL amigas with NTSC tooltype (else, possible timing errors). Sometimes can be interesting because games are different: ex: Magic Pockets NTSC has level codes.

CDTV games are CDTV versions of the game. There are CDTV-only games (no other version) but when you have a CDTV & an ECS version, they're probably identical (ex: Turrican 1 and 2)

Various versions were collected mainly because people had the original disks and we tried to support the maximum of original versions.
