Gods

This game is fantastic! Very good atmosphere, excellently designed levels and lots of weapons to choose from. You also have health as well as lives, which always looks good in my book. Only bad thing is the frustration when the hero suddenly decides to take a giant leap forward instead of just moving an inch closer to the edge. People who want fast, pumping action may be a bit disappointed at first, but stay with the game and you’ll get to like it. Read the review of Gods
Sundog - Frozen Legacy
July 24, 2002 by perihelion
The game has lots of cool features, and is groundbreaking in many areas. The realism is a real kick and I’m particularly fond of going to the bar to make an underground deal and the ships sub systems. All in all there is a feeling of freedom and realism seldom found in any game. The downside is that it gets a bit repetitive and slow after a while. I get frustrated over having to watch the landing sequence, which not only looks really bad, but is slow as hell. Still, this game is extremely special and you definitely should try it out unless you are an enemy of the genre. Read the review of Sundog - Frozen Legacy
Sim City

Father of all the games with "Sim" in the title, and one of the greatest classic 16-bit games ever. Sim City is an accurate simulation of all the crap a real mayor has to handle in his career. Never heard of it? Then you're probably kidding, or maybe you've been living on the moon during the last 12 years or so. Ok, seriously, REALLY never heard of it? Fine, read on...

Spindizzy Worlds
July 16, 2002 by ST Graveyard
"Spindizzy Worlds" by Electric Dreams is actually an updated version of the original "Spindizzy" (1986) from the 8-bit era! The original was released on the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64. "Spindizzy Worlds" was created specifically for the ST and Amiga! It introduced a new term into the gaming world..."collect 'em up"! This game offers an original blend of action, puzzle solving and skill! Read the review of Spindizzy Worlds
Leisure Suit Larry 1 - In the Land of the Lounge Lizards
July 6, 2002 by ST Graveyard
Leisure Suit Larry might not be the smartest adventure ever released, but it certainly is a one of a kind! Most of the jokes are just funny and entertaining, and it is hilarious to see this lovable character getting his way around! The game features some really funny sequences you can not afford to miss. In the end, this is a classic in its own right! Though I can't help but think that it never really reached its target audience...

It doesn't always have to be about computers, coding and graphics. Adrian Powell, the artist behind the original Lemmings game, crafted all its artwork, including box art and promotional materials. His passion for painting lemmings has persisted over time and he is still painting lemmings to this day. Powell's work remains influential and has helped selling millions of copies of this classic (ST) game.
