"Many players felt disappointed with the game ending, which is considered by many to be one of the worst game endings ever[citation needed]"

The walls are the wrong colour for DM.

Yes it's Eye of the Beholder.

I would guess 30 is Urban Strike? Struggling with 31...

CraigG, Friday, 17 October 2008 13:51 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 31 from Manic Miner?

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:51 (fifteen years ago) link

i'm trying to figure out what that object is in #27

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:52 (fifteen years ago) link

craigg close enough on 30; desert strike

coznebb (cozwn), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:52 (fifteen years ago) link

woohoo nice one NV for Manic Miner, i thought that one was going to stump everyone.

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Manic Miner, holy shit. would never have got from that. pissed i didn't get that was Eye of the Beholder straight off.

Alien Mindbender (Roberto Spiralli), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:53 (fifteen years ago) link

I played a lot of Manic Miner.

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 13:54 (fifteen years ago) link

Excellent call on Manic Miner. I think 27 might be an FPS of some sort - I see tracks and grass. a COD game perhaps?

CraigG, Friday, 17 October 2008 13:54 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 24 a game you can buy online from an indie company and I can't remember what it's called at the moment?

clue : it was made in 1988

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Friday, 17 October 2008 14:31 (fifteen years ago) link

looks at wikipedia's list of 1988 games...

what the shit: "La Abadía del Crimen (The Abbey of Crime) is a computer video game programmed in 1988 by Paco Menéndez based in the novel The Name of the Rose written by Umberto Eco. [...] This game is a videoadventure with 3D isometric graphics [...] The game was programmed making the most of the capacities of 8 bit computers, and taking a high level of care for details: plot, mapping, graphics, artificial intelligence of the characters, sound, etc. All of this made the game to be regarded as one of the best videogames made for 8 bit computers. In spite of its quality, the game was never officially released outside of Spain."
