20. Uninvited
That was the first adventure
game I played in which I didn't have to type a
word! (ok except for a couple
of spells). Excellent story, scary (if you're 13
years old, like I was at the time), difficult and
challenging puzzles, great ICOM interface (used also
in Deja Vu 1&2 and Shadowgate). |
|
19. Aladdin
AGA
Great platform game. The
graphics were awesome, the sound even better,
and the gameplay was neither too easy nor too
hard.
|
|
18. Simon
the Sorcerer 1&2
The SCUMM-like
interface and the humor made those two of my
favorite adventures.
|
|
17. Shadow
of the Beast 1-3
The first
was maybe THE game that showed what the Amiga
was capable of. The second was challenging due
to the arc-adv elements but too difficult without
a cheat! The third one was the best of the series
IMO.
|
|
16. Loom
Easily the
most original adventure game ever. Impossible
to describe; if you haven't played it yet, just
do it.
|
|
15. Rick
Dangerous
Guide Rick
through worlds where traps await in every corner.
I can still hear the "WHAAAAAAAAAHHH!" in
my dreams.
|
|
14. Project
X
One of the
best shoot'em ups for the Miggy. Hard and challenging,
with smooth parallel scrolling and lots of power-ups.
|
|
13. Turrican
1-3
Not just another shoot'em
up platformer; the Turrican games featured
a powerful character, infinite opponents and
cool physics.
|
|
12. Superfrog
Introducing
one of the cutest sprites ever, Superfrog had
a very smooth all-direction scrolling and a highly
addictive gameplay.
|
|
11. Skweek
Forget Pacman,
forget Snake, that's the most addictive maze
game you can get your hands on! The most catchy
musical theme since Bubble Bobble.
|
|
10. Leisure
Suit Larry 1-5
You gotta
love Larry. Ok 5 was terrible, but the third
one was CLASS.
|
|
9. Flashback
Whoever said
arcade and adventure don't mix obviously never
played Flashback. This isn't just about jumping
and shooting, there are endless tasks to complete
before you see the end of this game.
|
|
8. Worms
What's that?
Worms destroying each other with pistols, bazookas
and other weapons? Well, sometimes the most ludicrous
ideas produce the best games. Try it against
a friend or two to fully appreciate it.
|
|
7. Sensible
Soccer Series
Usually people
who like SS don't like Kick Off 2 and vice versa,
but I love them both. Especially the carrier
option of Sensible World of Soccer kept me going
for
years.
|
|
6. Lemmings
Series
Guide an army
of critters to safety. The first one (plus its
data disks) kept me glued on my
chair for months. Lemmings 2 was a bit disappointing,
but All New World of Lemmings was the best of
the series!
|
|
5. Deluxe
Galaga
Lots of powerups,
dozens of levels, game secrets, sub games.. What
more could one ask from a good old-fashioned
shoot'em up?
|
|
4. Indiana
Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
One of the
best stories ever written for a computer game,
heavily influenced by Greek mythology.
|
|
3. Wings
I never liked
flight simulators, but this one was really a
shoot'em up disguised as one. And with a story,
too! Perhaps the game I have finished over and
over and over again more than anything else.
|
|
2. Monkey
Island series
I'm sure you're
all aware of them. The flagship of adventure
games. The games that set
the standards
on how adventures should be made.
|
|
1. Kick
Off series
Kick Off 2.
You all know it. In my opinion the best computer
game
ever,
on any platform, in any genre, in any era. The
Kick Off Association nowadays is consisted of
hundreds
of members that travel all over Europe in order
to play against other players. What more proof
do you want? The best of the best.
