Metron
Neo-Rio says: This is not the best game ever, but it's really playable. Collect powerups, destroy large ships and save the galaxy.

Navy Seals
Neo-Rio says: Another great Ocean platform game, which originally was a cartridge-only release.
|
Xybots
Neo-Rio says: Although largely a disappointment on the C64 (thanks to the Spectrum look and feel), the game is still somewhat fun. It's like Gauntlet in 3D, and once you get used to the controls - you may have a blast.

Samantha Fox Strip Poker
Neo-Rio says: Before the internet gave us pornography on demand, teenage boys stole pornos from newsagents and played "Strip Poker" video games, complete with badly digitised pictures. Curious teenagers have it too good these days.

Master of Magic, The
Neo-Rio says: A simple RPG game, which slowly becomes an addiction as you try to get the amulet to return to your own world. Complete with a Rob Hubbard soundtrack.
|
Wizard of Wor
J2003C says: Tis a true classic! Great for 1 or 2 players. The increasing speed of the game makes breaking your highscore a real challenge. The game is so simple looking, but such a solid design that you won't even notice after zapping your first Wizard of Wor!

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
Neo-Rio says: If you're too young to remember He-Man, then you missed out on cartoons, plastic toys, a feature film... and this game. It's not a good game by a long stretch, but the Ben Daglish soundtrack gives me some nostalgia.
|
Into the Eagle's Nest
Neo-Rio says: Another great Gauntlet clone, but here you can run out of ammo and that has consequences. You also get to resuce prisoners but you'll need to learn where those lift-passes are....
|
Castle Wolfenstein
Neo-Rio says: "Achtung!" As well as being banned in Germany, this is the original inspiration for iD's "Wolfenstein 3D" and the FPS genre. This golden oldie forces you to rely on stealth more than firepower however. In game speech too.
