Frank Bruno's Boxing
Neo-Rio says: Nintendo's old "Punch Out" game gets the Commdore 64 clone treatment. The result is actually quite impressive (and includes the obligatory Rocky tune), although some of the boxers get nigh impossible later on.

Galaxy
Neo-Rio says: An official version of the arcade classic "Galaga" never made it to the Commodore 64, but this knock-off is a very good one which has all the excellent features of the original.

Highnoon
Neo-Rio says: Based on the 50s cowboy movie of the same name, complete with a rendition of the theme tune. The animations are cute with some nice touches - particularly the undertaker. A nostalgic trip, although not the greatest game ever.

Pirates!
Steve says: So much has been said about this classic game. And yes, it's all true, the game is even better! There is no better pirate game out there even nowadays.

Karnov
Neo-Rio says: Many people said that the C64 version of this game sucks, as it was a port from the Spectrum. I found this game to be incredibly playable and challenging when I got over how bad it looks.

Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters
graveyardjohn says: Colour sprites in a monochrome world? Surely some mistake? For whatever reason, the mix of styles in this conversion doesn't seem to detract from the gameplay. Rescue the hostages and shoot the robots (ideally with a friend).

Raid over Moscow
Matt Larsen says: How could anyone ever get tired of saving the earth from nuclear destruction? I used to stay home sick from school in order to play this game.
|
Hook
Neo-Rio says: This is a film-license adaption, and a really spiffy one it is too. Very console-esque and playable, especially for younger players.
|
Sensitive
Neo-Rio says: Nice little puzzle game where you have to get to the exit, dropping tiles on the way. Don't get yourself cornered.
