[General Discussion] First gaming experience

Mortville Manor. My cousin got an Atari and I played on this game. It was kind of point and click where you had to explore a manor in the snow and investigate clues. The music was so cool and atmospheric.

There was also a game on my friends PC called Elf. It was a side scroller and he never let me touch the keyboard.

Also on my spectrum I had a game called Kid Frankenstein. I used to play it loads. Cant remember much about it though, just wandering about in a castle.

There was a game on my C64 called Sultans Maze which used to take 1 hour to load! That was NOT worth the wait.

I remember when I finally got an Amiga 500 with the 1mb upgrade thingy, we found a guy in coventry who sold tonnes of copied amiga games. We used to give him a tenner and he would just give us a box with like 100 games in each time. I got this one game called Bills Tomato Game where you were a tomato, and your girlfriend tomato was kidnapped by a flying squirrel and it ran up a massive tree with her. The object of the game was to get from the left to the right of each screen using conveyer belts, fans, trampolines etc.

I remember the first megadrive game I played. Sonic 1. I was insanely addicted and used to go round to my cousins neighbours house just to play it. There was also Alex Kidd in Miracle World on my master system which I loved.

OOH OOH!! SUPERFROG! That was my favorite game on the Amiga..... next to PARASOL STARS! A very silent sleeper hit but absolutley insanely addictive. You would pick up enemies with your umbrella and fire them across the screen.

Oh and the New Zealand Story was cool too! You control a little yellow kiwi bird and hopped around the levels to quirky music. I had that game for over a year when I found an envelope in the box with cheats in! AWESOME!

Aw I feel all nostalgic now...

Jam it back in, in the dark.
