The Best ? aem. My Favorites ? Or do you mean the Tech behind the game. ?
*confused smurf*

Hmmm, anyway, this are my favorite games; right on the spot

Lionheart could be considered as one of THE Benchmarks for the 16-Bit Amigas

1) Lionheart (i love just everything about this game.. if i only could choose 1 - this would be it)
2) BC Kid
3) Turrican II
4) IK+ International Karate Plus = Endless Fun :Spin
5) Lemmings/ Ohh No, More Lemmings/ All the Holliday Lemmings ( i did not beat all the difficulty levels, so i will play them.. until i do

There are so many more ... this could take a while

I am still confused. Do you mean the "Best" Amiga games that where made ? ; or the one we like the best ?

Hmm, a game i never knew exist and i discovered recently.

THE SENTINEL - by the one and only Geoff Grammond & Music by David Wittaker.

I know it looks not super impressive (at first

) but this game got me hooked, seriously.

Once you know how to play, its something else; really.

I did not see this game once in any list here, not even in mine

and thats a SHAME !!!)

This. Many have probably given it a go in the 80s and then forgotten about it because of having had no clue of what to do in the game.

My other 4 games (as of today):

- Deuteros (not everyone's cup of tea either necessarily but a fun one to play and discover)
- Superfrog
- Tiny Bobble (super fun, I hope the two-player game will also receive limited credits at some point...one can always wish!)
- TV Sports Basketball

Deuteros is amazing (also loved Millenium 2.2). Still play both to this day.
