This is Toobz, Written by Gary Dunne, The aim of this game is pretty simple from the outset, you have to get the correct colored balls into the correct exits, and ditch the wrong balls down the abyss chute There are several launcher chutes (only 1 on level 1) which output colored balls, so for […]
Croak! is a Great Frogger Clone for the Amiga, Written by Selwyn Stevens, way back in 1992 This game is pretty self explanatory, You start off with a solo frog at the bottom of the screen, with this Frog, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get your beloved Frog into one […]
Another Epic Game just has to be Super Twintris, by Big Brother Copy, This game is Tetris but 2-player side-by-side with some wonderful background music, both on the Title Screen and In-Game, you even have 3 different in-game tunes to choose from as well which is a great touch As with most Tetris based games, […]
Another PD classic has to be Battlements by Scallywag / Blatant Rip-offs PLC (LOL!)

Super Pacman ’92 is yet (You guessed it) another Pacman-clone, In this version it does however slightly differ from the Normal run of the mill, here you have different types of Ghosts for example, such as the Green “Wanderer” Ghosts which just Wander around in no specific pattern, The Red “Romer” Ghosts who might chase […]
Mouth-Man is another good Pacman-clone, Written by Matthew J Barker in November 1991, This one has a variety of different levels, and the usual sounds you would expect, The Eating-Dots Sounds, The Eating Ghost Sounds, and Power Pellet Pickup Sounds, which are well done and feel nice and polished There are Extra Bonuses, such as […]

Heres another favourite Pacman-clone of mine, The Kari Pihkala version, This one has very nice in-game music both on the Title Screen, and in-game too, making it one of the more musical-pacmans I have ever played, and its a nice touch! The gameplay is of course Pacman-esque as expected, But in this version, the Ghosts […]
Pacman-April starts off with the powerprograms.nl version of Pacman, Created by Jeroen Knoester, sadly this was never fully completed, but it is still fully playable!

Breakout is a game by Jeroen Knoester from powerprograms.nl, Created using the AMOS Programming Language – This is basically a decent Arkanoid (Arcade) remake or clone in effect, and it has various powerups which alter gameplay, for example adjusting the size of your bat etc It has some rather nice title screen music as well, […]
Forgive me but I am actually well hyped over this game! Mine Runner was made by Matthias Bock in April 2002 for the Amiga, and was originally Shareware, But is now Freeware (http://www.lazycow.de/minerunner/index.html) It is based off Lode Runner (Arcades) where you have to collect all the Gold Bars (actually pictured as Red Blocks inside […]

Trix by G.Hales is a simple “fill the screen in” type-of-game, which is similar to Qix from the Arcades, You get points for filling the screen above a preset fill level (eg. 60%) which increases over time, making it more difficult Unusually for this game, there is no Title Screen Graphics, it simply starts off […]
