The HARDEST platform game ever!! in any Amiga (2012 Edition)

nittamituaki · 21 April 2012, 04:35

Hi guys,
Finally I could select following 8 games.
All I bought from Ebay in 2011-2012, then I played on my CD32 and analogic FDD.
Here is my list:

Battletoads
Carver
Chuckie Egg II
ELF (Microvalue)
Exolon
Fallen Angel
Hoi
Yolanda

My opinion, ELF is the one (The hardest).

Guardian Angel(Freddy Hardest) is famous as insane game,however,
I noticed that it is much easier than Fallen Angel(similar fighting game),
and anyone will be able to beat.

Battletoads (CD32 version) are known as nightmare version, harder than NES version,too.
Carver and Chuckie II are nearly impossible hard game.
About Exolon, I might have to play again and again to know details.
Hoi and Yolanda are well-known games as hardest game.

I am glad to many many opinions from any amiga gamers at EAB.
Thank you

Enemy : Tempest of Violence is pretty tough, even the easyplay version. And unlike ALL the games in your list, it's actually a good game :P

I can't get enough of these threads

For me it's still the first "Shadow of the Beast".

But actually... after beating the NES Ninja Gaiden III and The Last Ninja on the C64 without any cheats or savestates, I have to say - I STILL CANNOT FINISH GODS. FOR THE LOVE OF GODS THIS "SUPPOSEDLY EASY MIGGY PLATFORMER" IS IMPOSSIBLE.

Alright, so there you are and I feel a bit better now xD

Gameplay wise Yolanda is simply hideous.

Schlachtwerk · 25 April 2012, 22:06

Ghosts 'n Goblins is the Hell ^^.

I remember I had version without music on title screen but where can I find it?

Warlock's Quest. It makes Ghosts N Goblins look easy.

Amiga1992 · 15 May 2012, 03:24

I feel like a lot of these are hard just because they are crappily designed.

lesta_smsc · 15 May 2012, 03:26

Colorado is one game I still haven't managed to complete!...

Re Gods. It's important to really master the earlier levels so you gain as many bonus lives as possible. Learn all the tricks and bonuses before trying to complete the game. When you can get the end with a healthy stock of lives, you can afford to be a bit sloppy at the end. That's how I completed it anyway

Sword is impossible!

Predseda · 30 September 2012, 17:47

There is a lot of 'hardest games ever'. For example - did anyone of you complete Walker? Also once mentionet Enemy is stone hard. And many other examples.

It is on each player. I consider Gods easy, for example, but can not complete more than few levels in Agony or SVIW or even Banshee, that many games take as average hard.

And also many games are relatively easy, but have a moment that seems to be unbeatable. For me that is level 4-4 of Ruff n Tumble or train level in Turrican 3.

Mrs Beanbag · 30 September 2012, 18:01

I feel like I ought to apologise for making Mr Beanbag so hard... but I blame Alex for that, of course.

Many of the games remarked are not platformers.

Some very hard Amiga platformers are:

Ghost Battle - Horrible graphics and horrible hard.

Death Trap - Also very hard, with an unfinished aspect.

Nebulus 2 - Very hard, but what really will desesperate you are the loading times.

Hudson Hawk - Veeeery hard,.. but playable anyway. despite some unfriendly controls.

One which is hard to begin with, but is incredibly well designed and hooking is Traps'N'Treasures one of the very best from amiga softology.. and with outstanding sound fx and musics.

Ghost battle is very hard, but the graphics are quite nice.
Death trap is very hard, but has great graphics.

The Ghost Battle graphics are very bad,despite Henk Nieborg is behind them.

s2325 · 02 October 2012, 11:03

I think only main hero have weird proportions, everything else is top quality.

Palette usage itsnt very good.. the colouring lacks of style and nuances. And yes, human figures are amateur.

Anyway it was his first commercial work.. my first works werent that good.

Of course, later graphics of Henk Nieborg were pretty cool.. Lionheart and Flink has very nice artwork. =D

Respect Death Trap I say it looks a little unfinished. I not saying it be simply bad, they are interesting.

Predseda · 02 October 2012, 22:53

I consider Ghost battle graphically above average, up to nice.

Btw the artist progress is great:
