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.

Mutants
Neo-Rio says: Another bizarre and trippy game with some excellent music. You have to clean up 15 or so sectors, with bizarre aliens in each sector to deal with. It's a little different than most shoot'em ups. That's for sure.

Daley Thompson's Olympic Challenge
Neo-Rio says: Daley Thompson has a lot to answer for. The games he graced, especially this one, were primarily responsible for thousands of broken joysticks all around the world.

Loopz
Neo-Rio says: A nice but tricky puzzle game. Create loops with the pieces you are given. Bigger loops mean bigger points, but don't get carried away. The play area is very small! The Dave Whittaker soundtrack is great.

Master of the Lamps
graveyardjohn says: 3D on the Commodore? Well, sort of. Fly through the hoops and reach the genie, before doing it again. Great fun in short bursts.
|
Katakis
Neo-Rio says: This game nearly got scrapped for being too similar to "R-Type". Fortunately it survived, and what a fun game it is too. Katakis lives!
|
Skyfox
Neo-Rio says: Classic Electronic Arts game... where you get to blast loads of tanks and airplanes. Great fun!

Wizardry V - Heart of the Maelstrom
Steve says: True RPGs are nowadays seldomly seen. Sad. But why don't you launch your C=64 or emulator and give this one a try. As all of the wizardry RPGs, this one is a great classic game with a strong plot and a very challenging engine. Enter the kingdom of Llylgamyn! To bad part VI (Bane of the cosmic forge) has never been released on the C=64

Smurfen
Neo-Rio says: C64 rip-off of the old Atari game... playable but fondly remembered for the Michael Jackson "Billy Jean" SID music cover!
