Title: What Amiga game are you currently playing?
Post by: power on December 02, 2019, 01:57:47 pm
Just a little thread for general chatter over what you are currently playing.

I'll kick it off with mine, I was a big fan of Monkey Island and graphic adventures back in the day (when MI2 had 11 floppies).

So one that got a lot of attention at the time was Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and I never owned this, but I do have it now and also WHDLoad to play it. So I'm finally getting to play it after all these years.

Hey power!

Perhaps add some of these beauties to the game requests topics (I have added Indiana Jones)!?

Due to time restrictions and wanting to dive a bit deeper into games, I am concentrating on the games of the month. 
Have played a lot of SWIV already, digging into Banshee now (what a great and addictive game) and have dipped my toes into Xmas Lemmings 91.

Have heard great things about Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and I vaguely remember playing it as a kid, so will be on the vote for Jan Game of the Month for sure!

I'm going to be honest, I still can't decide if I prefer Silkworm or SWIV, but I think overall I've played more Silkworm. Both such great games.

After having refurbished my old A500 and added some horsepower to it, I have finally got hold of an original set of disks for Frontier : Elite II that I have played lately emulated when on the road, that I am so looking forward to play on the real HW during this christmas. Yay !

SWIV has the nostalgia factor for me as I didn't have silkworm untill later on in life

I keep saying that too! My A2000 is all up and running and really should be playing SWIV on that!

We finally got the chance to play SWIV and Xmas Lemmings with my daughter on the A2000! And we failed very badly!  :(

I owned the original game (one of the few) as a teenager! Had to pull in all the favours available to me at the time (Birthday, Christmas).

Great game, I spent at least an entire year of my life on it :)

I must admit it needs that extra power to make it playable on the old A500 that was the first game I tried when I got my ACA500 plus  8)

Just thought I would put my 2c in to spark up the topic again!

I have never played "Warlords" must give it a go, very please to have found - at least a little - time to play the Game of The Month (this month)!

Who else is playing? and on what if I may ask?

BlitzWays is an amazing puzzle game! I urge you all to give it a go! It will have your head spinning! 😉

Just started playing Ruff N' Tumble

It's a really nice run and gun from 1994. I'm generally pretty critical of platform / side scrollers on the Amiga, but this one is excellent. Check it out!

We really must add that to our GOTHEM List!
