SWIV
Neo-Rio says: I love blasters. SWIV is the sequel to "Silkworm". Yet another shooter which is very well done and playable. Somebody has to play as the jeep though...

MULE
Neo-Rio says: When people talk about classic game design, this game often gets mentioned. It's a simple multiplayer economics simulation involving robot mules. It's always more fun to play with others than to play alone.

IK+
Mayhem says: The best fighting game on the C64, and one of the best ever. Three fighters ups the ante and the bonus game is cunning enough to reward those skillful to defeat it. Even better than classic now you can have 3 humans in the action with the hack that is available.

Downhill - Ski Jump
Neo-Rio says: One of the better games from the Cascade 50 games cassette, even if your skiier has no arms. Different levels require different skiing tactics... until you need the ambulance.
|
Impossible Mission
Mayhem says: The best thing Epyx did, and one of the best bits of software to ever come out of America. Compulsive, challenging (though not impossible) and filled to the gills with ingenuity and attention to detail. You'll want to stay a while... and possibly stay forever.

SkateRock
Neo-Rio says: Don't ask me why, but I found this Bubble Bus game addictive. I still can't get over how stupid the music is though.

Street Sports Basketball
J2003C says: The fighting and no-rules style of play are really fun and funny. AI is easy to beat, so 2P is always more challenging. Too bad you can't play this physical in real life!

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.

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.
