The Amiga Games Database emerges from jumpgate!

Angus · 09 May 2021, 13:54

Hi guys,

The Amiga Games Database (a collection of over 1000 game reviews) has been unavailable for sometime. Thanks to the EAB, it is now once more accessible at the following link:

http://agdb.abime.net/AGDB/AGDB.html

As well as the excellent reviews from a hugely diverse group of Amiga gamers, there are also some interesting submissions from Amiga celebrities, who share the challenges and joys of creating the games themselves.
To access the reviews there is a complete Alphabetical listing, or you can navigate to them from the various categories I have put them in - all in gloriously low tech .html!

I hope you enjoy the AGDB.

With grateful thanks to RCK and CodyJarrett for their generosity in offering a home for the AGDB, and to Wepl, DrBong and jotd for their advice and support.

And to those of you who have supported and provided reviews for the AGDB in the past. ;-)

All the best,
Angus

Great news Angus! It's good to see a classic Amiga website resurrected.

Here are my really old reviews.

DisposableHero · 19 May 2021, 14:51

Welcome back Angus. There are a few of mine on there too.

Angus · 20 May 2021, 22:35

Thanks chaps, :-)

Nice site, pretty shocked Cody didn't review Civilisation though, probably too busy playing it constantly to put down in words his feelings about the game.

Welcome aboard the good ship abime.net

Cool stuff, I'll be checking it out for sure

Thank you.

That was probably because we already had three reviews of Civilization and at that point, I would encourage reviewers to consider selecting another game. In hindsight, not necessarily a good call.

Who knew...

Great site and resource! Thank you!

RCK gave me a more stream lined url which I've now fixed in the original post.

No joy, got a 404.

http://agdb.abime.net/AGDB.html Hopefully that is a refresh and/or a cache issue. :-/

Seems to be a URL change.

Was: http://agdb.abime.net/AGDB/Profiles/AdrSim.html
Now: http://agdb.abime.net/Profiles/AdrSim.html

I love this part:

You certainly did, Cody.
