SB Recommends Amiga Games

It's a home computer.

• Agony
  • Loki Laufeyson: A beautiful side-scrolling shooter in which the player is an owl. Allegedly some of the music was later ripped off by a black metal band.

• Apydia

• Datastorm
  • les meat: fucking awesome defender clone that I played before I even knew what defender was. GIANT FUCKING SQUIDS AND SKULLS!

• Defender of the Crown
  • Loki Laufeyson: Very, very simple strategy game that involves conquering all the counties of England in the days of Robin Hood. You'll probably complete it in half an hour, but worth playing for the luxurious graphics, that look far, far too good for a 25 year old game. Also, don't bother with the jousting, it's pretty much impossible to win.

• Hunter
  • les meat: GTA3 to us basically :) this was played to death, we didn't even play it right mostly just pissed around, fucking awesome and very impressive at the time. So many vehicles! hovercraft was my fave.

• International Karate +
  • les meat: fighting game where lots of keys on the keyboard had weird effects, like T made everyone's trousers fall down.

• Lionheart
  • Loki Laufeyson: Platform beat em up with insanely detailed graphics and great animation.

• Lotus Turbo Challenge 2
  • les meat: This was probably the mario kart of middle class England. The guy down the road was jealous because it played a “YEEEHAH!” voice sample when driving under trucks on my Commodore Amiga because I had 1 meg of ram not 512kb

• Megaball
  • q 3: great Breakout clone or greatest Breakout clone?

• Quik and Silva
  • les meat: Bizarre [public domain] Game that I think my dad got a copy of from one of his friends. Me and my sister played it loads. Awesome music and awesome deformed versions of Sonic, Mario X Q-Bert, rtype, Bub, Teenage Mutant Turtles, power up things and Walkers from Turrican (which in turn were references to goombas)

• Rainbow Islands
  • les meat: perhaps the best rainbow islands port ever

• Savage

• Slam Tilt Pinball
  • The Blueberry Hill: This is the best Pinball game. The tables are full of ace little touches; even minigames! There's a Windows version, but it won't run in XP or newer.

• Turrican

• Turrican 2
  • les meat: one of the best level 1 themes ever. This game is to me what Super Mario Brothers is to most people.

• Xenon 2: MEGABLAST
  • les meat: subtitled after the acid house track that was converted to MOD for the game. this game was fucking hard, well it was when I was a kid. In the shop you could buy this horse icon that would give your ship every weapon in the game for about 40 seconds, it was pointless because you didn't hit that many enemies after the shop but you still fell for it every time
