If they were not released and we do not have them dumped (full version or at least demo) it is hard to belive They were actually finished. Only excuse is if we can contact someone who was in developer team and get confirmation about state of that project.

Why hard to believe? Many years ago I or my friend (i dont remember exactly who) talked with Daylight Robbery musician (Paul Robotham) and he told that this game was finished. Game was reviewed in Amiga Joker by Reshoot series author. Maybe can be still available in Amiga Joker archive? Someone can ask rl.
Same for Babylonian Twins, game was finished and sold to canadian museum (if I remember right old info).
Legacy was finished too.

That's at least what was told at the time. To put it mildly that's not a likely scenario though.

That being said there are certainly Amiga games that are 'finished' (review copy with bugs at least), but have never been found. If a (working) copy of those still exists somewhere becomes less likely each year.

"Proxima" by Proxima Design
it was previewed twice in The Games Machine magazine,
I am sure they got problem with camera during taking those shoots because colour palette looks different. Issue or page 52 and 53.

Thank you I've created two new entries for Ruby Fire and Scrabble (they couldn't think of a more generic name for the game )

Ruby Fire and Proxima both look great, would love to see them in action, Ruby Fire seems like it might have some awesome parallax effects.

"Secret of the Lighthouse" by NRG Software
previewed in Amiga Computer Studio 1997-06
It was going to be adventure game, Myst clone.
It will require AGA, Fast Ram, Hard-disk and it was going to be finished at end of 1997.
But I do not remember that game to be reviewed or mentioned by anyone else so I believe it was unreleased at some point.

"Sergei the Showdown" - Sidefx
game was unreleased, not sure if there was working code finished, or it was just a mock-up.
I have no answer from Sidefx developer,
I try to contact them on facebook in 2019,
I found those screens on their facebook profile site.
Some screenshoots were also on their web site but they change layout and I can not find it any more.
I believe it was some kind of unannounced internal project people were working on.

"SIM The Lost World" by Jobbo2k
Unreleased adventure game, it was mentioned once on site:
http://www.amigaflame.com/amiggoc.htm
"SIM – The Lost World is an adventure game in the style of The Dig or Darkseed. The game engine required a minimum of 16MB Fast Ram and a fast CD drive. SIM – The Lost World is on hold as their coder had to leave due to new work commitments. I sincerely hope that this situation will change and someone will come forward to help them with SIM – The Lost World as its screenshots clearly show the incredible effort they have put into the game so far. "
