Mr. Do!
J2003C says: This game isn't that much like the arcade classic, but is just as fun! The only problem may be that it is a little too easy, once you get the hang of it, so extra lives and exploding rubber balls keep on coming!

Tank
J2003C says: This game CAN be played 2P with the 2nd player as the turrent controller on keyboard. Either way, the variety of weapons and enemies make this a very enjoyable shooter!

Warhawk
graveyardjohn says: Futuristic bas-relief graphics from 1986. A classic shoot-em-up with soundtrack by Mr Hubbard himself, and which only cost £1.99 when released!

Donald Duck's Playground
Neo-Rio says: How do you make a game that girls will play endlessly? Put in some likeable characters, silly tasks, money, and shopping for junk you don't need. Sounds much like my own life though - minus Donald Duck.

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).

Motor Mania
Steve says: First racing game I played on the C64, great fun. This is the one where you could run over pedestrians, correct? ;-)
|
Gauntlet
graveyardjohn says: The official Gauntlet clone was alledgedly very bug-ridden, though the version I had on cassette didn't seem to pose any problems to us. Unless of course my brother and I were very poor at it and couldn't get far enough for it to crash! Not a bad conversion, all things considered.

Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
Neo-Rio says: This is one brilliantly animated adventure game, made by Lucasfilm who also did Labyrinth and Maniac Mansion. Resuce the planet from the brainwashing aliens!

International Basketball
graveyardjohn says: A great two player game from 1984, I played this with my brother for ages. Easy to play, but also easy to foul and cause penalties to be awarded.
