Looking for Wrecked
GIMME AMIGA ADF ROMZ NOW!
No, really... I remembered a game I saw mentioned at the pages of The One. It was a platformer, done by some kind of anti-drugs society. But... in the game the 'power ups' were different kind of drugs! So if you took LSD you started to see things, or amphetamines gave you speed, shit like that. Not very anti-drugs, lemme tell you I think the name of the game was called Wrecked (I can check this when I get home). It was sort of PD, you paid little cash to this society and they gave you the game. Did anybody ever play it? How about an upload to the 'zone? Last edited by Amiga1992; 06 August 2001 at 20:02. |

Ok, I have found more info about this game. I'll quote what was wrote on The One about it:

Wow - how'd I miss that one? I really must have this game, as well. Maybe we'll luck out and Cody has a copy, but looking through his stuff, I don't see an indication of it.
Morph - you seen this one in any of your travels? |

Wrecked
I've had this one on my requests list for some time, but thanks for all that info akira. I actually live in liverpool and I don't remember this game around back in the amiga 500 days.
Someone must have it though. I'll ask some local amiga buffs if they remember it. How long ago did it get released? |

Well, I took that from The One, January 1994 issue, so it must have been released during late november/early december 1994 approximately. Perhaps the guys who published it have a copy or two around? It sure must be a funny game

I was going to ask about this title, so it's a good time to resurrect this thread.
Since it is still MIA I am guessing it probably was not released. Anyone?? |

It was also supposed to be on the PC as well and I had a demo of it on floppy that came with PC Zone January 1995 Issue 22. I still have the magazine with a bit about it but I no longer have the floppy. I'd be willing to make a scan of the mag, but I haven't got a scanner at the moment and it'd have to wait a month or two if anyone would want to see the page? So has anyone actually rang Healthwise up then? I actually e-mailed them about this but just got ignored. I really want this game now.

Caught this rather late, but I'm the author the Wrecked on the Amiga. A PC conversion was done, but I always felt it was inferior I might possibly have an Original Amiga disk version (no idea where it could be after so much time and travels), but in all likelyhood is unreadable today. If anyone has a copy I'd love to have one! I once saw a zip of the PC version on the internet about 10 years ago, but can't find it anymore Thanks also to Paul, Colin and Timeshard for their input in making this game.
You might get something out of HealthWise, but we didn't part with James Kay in the best of terms, and he probably doesn't want reminding about us We also followed it up with a sequel called 'Sloshed', all about alchol. This was PC only though, and not as good. Fred Last edited by prowler; 25 January 2012 at 21:49. Reason: Back-to-back posts merged. |

I realize your post was four years ago but I've only recently become curious about this again. Colin Last edited by prowler; 25 January 2012 at 21:47. Reason: Back-to-back posts merged. |

Hey! This is awesome.
I want this game! Did you ever upload it for real? Or anybody caught it if it was uploaded? |

Well I sent Fred_O'Rourke a PM and also left a visitor message but I'm as of yet to receive a response so I guess this game will probably be lost in the mists of time forever unless he subscribed he won't receive an e-mail so I'm wondering if there's a way so that he'll get 1.

Thank you very much Rygar however, it's the shareware version but it's better than nothing and as it states in the description that there is no download of this game anywhere else at all not even the shareware version it just goes to show how rare this game really is especially when it's been posted on a website specialising in rare games. Thank you very much again.
