Have any details on where you found this?

So I did! yes, found the original, it was from a catalogue. Looks like a Gauntlet clone.

I saw an advertisement of this game in one of the issues of Amiga World Magazine. And what do you mean you found the original? You have, like, a physical copy?

One day I shall go through all of their issues and list the games they advertised, that are not in HoL.

You could create a thread with your findings and maybe people will add what they know about those games.

I think I might try to win this auction: https://allegrolokalnie.pl/oferta/azja-nos-amiga

The name is "Azja" - some Polish educational program and/or game. Can't see it in HoL or on Turran, has anybody got it already?

TCD · 30 June 2022, 19:16

A Polish educational game about the geopolitical situation in Asia? I think you have a good shot to be the first

There is also Afryka, a similar edu game

https://allegrolokalnie.pl/oferta/afryka-nos-amiga

Atares also released Europa 2.1, however you can find this adf on Turran's ftp.

You can probably browse for more lost Polish games on allegro. A few years ago someone sold Hiscon Rescue, a lost Amiga game, pretty cheap.

Ah yes, nice find...it's the same guy. I bid on that too. Though not sure how far I'm prepared to pay - spent way too much on retro hardware recently and my budget is supertight.

NPI · 01 July 2022, 18:23

Well, let us know if you were successful

dreadnought · 01 July 2022, 19:56

Phew, I did just win "Azja", but that was a lucky shot, coz I forgot the auction ends today, went out, and my bid was set only 1PLN above the asking. That "allegro lokalnie" is a totally awful site, because it doesn't let you put in your max bid and forget about it (like on allegro proper, or ebay) - you have to be there on time for the ending, and every time somebody puts in a higher bid, the auction gets 5 min longer, and then rinse/repeat...it can go on for hours! It's beyond stupid

The question is, though, what now? I don't even have a working Amiga atm...

Do you have a scanner?

And maybe find someone nearby that does and can make at least an ADF or DMS of the disk

dreadnought · 01 July 2022, 20:04

Scanning shouldn't be a problem, I can go to some place. When I get my Amiga fixed I should be able to make an adf...I think? Can it be done on a normal Amiga? I have A500 with ACA500+.

dreadnought · 07 July 2022, 19:31

Ok, I got both "Azja" and "Afryka". I don't have a scanner but I suppose some public xero service should be able to do this for me. Is there any specific settings I should ask them to do?

TCD · 07 July 2022, 19:32

Just ask them to use at least 300 DPI (they should do that by default I guess).
