"Bizzy Bros" by Loriciel
unreleased Diggers/Extractors clone, but to be more accurate this game was in development in 1991 so it was first.
It was planed for Amiga, Atari ST, CPC.
I found previews in Generation4 issue 47 on page 112 and in Joystick issue 21 from 1991 November on page 17.




I am not sure but there should be demo for PC ms-dos and somebody in 2021 was trying to remake it on modern PC. There was Youtube video:

Could somebody identify the magazine that this preview is from?

[Gzegzolka]

Asm - aktueller software markt, on RACK there are only front covers of that magazine. Kultmags site should have it.

[TCD]

ASM is a German magazine, this is a French preview.

[Gzegzolka]

My bad, You are right. It is Generation4 page 107 issue 12 1989 June.
It is available at abandonware magazines site.
It would be easier if every Amiga related magazine was available at RACK site, but I understood it will require more space to keep those files and time to download and convert all those pdf/cbr/djv files.
Also, do You prefer just a small cropped part of page with material about game or picture of whole page?
Also II, I start to download those materials many years ago so my first records lacks organised informations. Right now I have full alphabet of unreleased games, or changed in development, or abandoned projects.

That is indeed the goal. The problem is contributors as it is a lot of work to index magazines (or so I heard). Plus there's currently a technical problem.

It honestly doesn't matter that much. Full page is fine.

Any info additional to the scan is welcome, but the scan alone is the important part.

Thank you for the scans and info

Could you let me know if the 'middle' preview is from Amiga Computer Studio 5/1998 or 9/1998? Not sure if imgur changes the file name, but https://imgbb.com/ keeps the file name intact.

[TCD]

I've added all the games except for Champions to HOL. The info about a planned Amiga version for Champions seems to be a misinformation by the French distributor I would assume.

[Gzegzolka]

Upper is Amiga Magazyn , middle is ACS 1998 05, bottom is ACS 09.
As for Champions I think You are right , in official Konami advert there is only IBM as available format.

[TCD]

Thank you I missed Amiga Magazyn.

"Basket Island" by Syndrome
unreleased game that is already on HOL,
it was previewed in Amiga Dream 1996-12 on page 26 issue 35.
There is scan of preview already there, I just provide in with issue it can be found.

"Bureau 13" by Gametek
unreleased adventure game, it was released for PC
there were previews in:
Amiga Concept issue 14 1995-04 page 27

Amiga Dream issue 16 1995-03 page 28

Amiga Dream issue 17 1995-04 page 77

"Chokigessen" and "Chukkie"
two unreleased games mentioned twice in Amiga Concept magazine
issue 8 1994-10 page 15 and 16


issue 12 1995-02 page 14
someone should translate it so we can learn who was developer and who could be publisher,
there are "Team17" type in bold font but it looks strange because I do not find any more previews of this titles in other magazines .

https://web.archive.org/web/20080828...mbatremix.html (here are 3 nice screen shoots)
