One box of disks left...
I have one box of 10 disks left to write for my newly running A1000.
What should I put on them? I'm interested in the earlier games, when OCS and 512K was standard. I'm thinking:
Other games on the short list:
I'm obviously trying to recreate something here, and I don't think anyone there can read my mind, but are there obvious omissions? I probably need to leave a few for important applications, like Deluxe Paint, but I need to work that out separately. |

Digi Paint - Yes, definitely, I actually paid for that. Rainbow Islands - Yes, already on the list, for some reason I loved it, even if everyone I knew didn't. Rick Dangerous - Meh, maybe, only saw it later on, never saw the appeal. |

I love these games |

Mind Walker - don't know why it doesn't get mentioned much, but it's one of the first games I ever saw on the Amiga, and was wowed by it. I love the music in it.

If we're talking Amiga 1000 years (mainly 85-86) then I'd add

Speedbump gimme goosebump

One of the first game which requires an additional 512k of slow ram IIRC, so according to your criteria, it doesn't qualify.

Palace or Psygnosis ? My crystal ball says Palace, but since you mentioned Obliterator in that list of yours, I am not so positive about it. Baal deserves a mention too, but I won't deny it's a bit on the frustrating side, so play it with a trainer if you can. Same could be said about Spindizzy. Last but not least, Winter Games (when switched into NTSC mode) & Sinbad are great games too. Last edited by SquawkBox; 06 January 2022 at 12:22. |

I liked the Palace title too but i could finish it in half an hour using the same three moves. The box covers where both awesome even if one was more about art and the other about boobs |
