Nonterraqueous
Jimbo says: For a £1.99 budget game, this rocked! Great little multi-screen shoot'em-up, that has a cool melodious tune to listen to whilst you play!

Red Moon
Neo-Rio says: Red Moon is not your typical adventure game. It's part RPG as well, and it's also massively huge and detailed. It was hailed for its greatness back in the day.

Suicide Express
Neo-Rio says: Fondly remembered for it's Bladerunner-esque music and the sythesized voice which tells you your score when you die. I don't understand why the author made many clones of it, the game is a bit average.

Elite
Steve says: The mother of all space trading games. Great game, you begin to live in the large universe of this game as soon as you begin playing. Still remember how i earned enough money to get my docking computer, manual docking into a space station was bloody frustrating ;-)

Mission Elevator
Neo-Rio says: Elevator Action this is not, but a rather spiffy action adventure game in similar style. Get to the top of the hotel and diffuse the bomb, collecting the code and emergency exit keys on the way up.

Hat Trick
J2003C says: Very close to the arcade game. Great feel and good response to joystick input. Makes a great 2P game too. Very challenging on the expert setting.

Pinball Construction Set
Neo-Rio says: A true classic. Create your own pinball machines! Not exactly modern day Virtual Pinball, but *easily* lets you make old-skool machines. Loads of fun back in the day.

Paradroid
graveyardjohn says: How could we not include this?! Move from floor to floor, dispatching or taking over robots on the way. A combination of mild shooter and puzzler, this will keep you glued for ages.

Into the Eagle's Nest
Neo-Rio says: Another great Gauntlet clone, but here you can run out of ammo and that has consequences. You also get to resuce prisoners but you'll need to learn where those lift-passes are....
