I remember having loads of fun with a game very similar to head over heels. Theres a very slim chance it could have been for the c64 cos its so long ago I can't place the year. The main thing I remember is that the graphical style was VERY similar to how head over heels looks for the amiga,,and I think it was puzzle based, kinda like head over heels. It wasn't Cadaver or Immortal, or Heimdall, and it wasn't Shadowlands/worlds.
It would be great if you could just list ALL the isometric games for the amiga as I LOVE all the ones listed above (specially shadowworlds) and I'm always on the lookout for others ![]() ![]() Thanks in advance to anyone who can help ![]() Fin |

I hope that we will see this functionality in HOL 2 (a later revision that is, because it will most likely not appear in the very first version). Would be a great thing, also for me, to retrieve some lost gems of which I've forgotten the name meanwhile. The only isometric puzzle game I can think of is Contraption Zack, but this can't really be called "similar to HoH" ![]() Last edited by andreas; 17 October 2004 at 04:37. |

on Amiga the only one I remember is Universal Monsters. Oh, there's also Whizzy (Is this spelled correctly? I think not), but that's a little different, and D-Generation, which is COMPLETELY different (But a game you must check out if you don't know it)
On 8 bits machine, there's Knight Lore, Alien 8, Batman, Gunfright.... those are what I remember now, but I know there are more (I never liked thos games too much...) |

thanks alot guys. So far none that you mention seem to be the one (but I'm yet to check the c64 ones). D-Generation looks ace, I'll try it soon..thanks Shatterhand
![]() There must be more cool isometric games for the amiga though..from memory and searching on HOL I've found these good ones so far: Cadaver Darkmere Heimdall 1&2 Heroquest 1&2 Immortal Shadowlands/worlds Syndicate Voodoo Darkmere and Cadaver look like 2 classics I'm yet to get into :P ..but are there any more?? |

Knight Lore... I used to play that for hours on my mates
amstrad around 1984... used to be able to draw the map for it from memory I did get hold of it and run a suitable emulator for it on the Amiga but after all the effort decided to leave it in the memory only... ![]() but to stay inline with the theme what about faery tale adventure? I finished that ![]() |

Damn. Its not any of the ones you've suggested. It really did look VERY like head over heels..so think mainly black screen, puzzles like Head over heels; basically a head over heels clone perhaps. But I seem to remember the jump physics to be quicker and snappier than in Head over Heels.
The closest looking suggestion so far is easily Super Hero, but I havn't been able to find it for download yet. Chimera is too blocky and doesnt have the tiled floor like Head over heels and Super Hero. Thanks again, keep 'em coming ![]() Fin |

Ok, found the download and Super Hero is close but no cigar. I really couldn't say for sure whether it was c64 or amiga but I'm tempted to say amiga cos its so similar to head over heels on the amiga.
