Pit-Fighter - The Ultimate Competition
Neo-Rio says: This is my other favourite fighter on the C64. Gameplay is good enough plus you can have 2 players. I remember making a hack of this game to play as the enemy characters many years ago.

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
Neo-Rio says: Educational games are rarely this good. Track down Carmen by following geographical clues. This game spawned a franchise of games, and even ended up as a cartoon series too.

Trolls and Tribulations
Matt Larsen says: Not many people ever talk about this gem. Fantastic music ballads. It had me hooked as a kid. To this day I don't think I have ever found a trained version.

Go-Kart Simulator
Neo-Rio says: A game that owes a lot of its gameplay to the arcade "Rally X", this souped up version is surprisingly playable. It has its flaws, but it's still a fun game - and that's what matters.

Jumpman
J2003C says: The "forgiving" nature of this game make it unique. You sometimes grab a platform by a fingernail at the last second. Variety and difficulty make this game a highly replayable classic.

Zork I - The Great Underground Empire
Steve says: first-ever "interactive-fiction"-product from infocom and the most popular text adventure ever, written in 1981; Infocom essentially invented the wheel to fit the limitations of the day. Flawed by current standards, but still a remarkable achievement. You, the adventurer, stumble on the remains of the Great Underground Empire, and seek out the treasures hidden there.

Monopole CBM-64
Neo-Rio says: The classic boardgame got the BASIC V2.0 treatment early on in the C64's life. It's great fun and nostalgic for me, because I learnt some cool programming tricks from the listing.

Crossroads
Neo-Rio says: Waah... "Wizard of Wor" gone insane is the only way to describe this game. It's loads of fun just to run around blasting things.
|
Zynaps
Neo-Rio says: Another side-scrolling shooter game with class. This game is REALLY HARD, but for some reason I got addicted to it, despite dying over and over again.
