Arnie Armchair's Howzat Cricket Game
Neo-Rio says: One of the first games I played on the C64 as it came in the box. Fondly remembered for it's annoying title tune ditty, and the thrashings my family members took at it.

Subsonic
Neo-Rio says: This brilliant little game came on a Zzap64 covermounted cassette. The game is pretty and fairly playable, but most amazing is the mind blowing music score.

Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters
graveyardjohn says: Colour sprites in a monochrome world? Surely some mistake? For whatever reason, the mix of styles in this conversion doesn't seem to detract from the gameplay. Rescue the hostages and shoot the robots (ideally with a friend).

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.

Hacker II - The Doomsday Papers
Neo-Rio says: Your expert hacking skills are required again to remotely control robots and splice security footage so that you can escape with the enemy plans without being detected. A unique experience to be played with the lights out!

Java Jim in Square Shaped Trouble
Neo-Rio says: Java Jim looks like it was made by someone who did too much acid. That doesn't stop it being a weird, but fun game. You have to dig up artifcats (all of the same type) and sell them to buy ship pieces.

Rock Star Ate my Hamster, A
Neo-Rio says: Make your own run-off-the-mill artificial pop band with a bunch of rockers, spoofed from the 80s. Get your group popular enough and they might just land a #1 single! ....... maybe......
|
Shamus
Neo-Rio says: Classic. Running around in a maze has never been this much fun, or ever will be!
|
Airborne Ranger
J2003C says: This game has a nice ballance between action and strategy. It's difficult, but you can finish the game if you practice enough. There's plenty of variety to keep you coming back for more.
