Which Amiga games do your children like the most?
« on: February 09, 2008, 01:08:58 PM »
Subject is right: children, not kids! My 2-year-old son loves to sit in my knees and watch me playing Hugo, Car-Vup and The Lion King on my A1200.

Can other parents out there point me some new stuff? The player is a bit bored of the same games again and again :-). Browsing through HOL / Lemon Amiga is a hard time and they are not child-tested.

Thanks.

Bubba 'n' Stix is very colourful and likely to appeal to children, and maybe Soccer Kid.

Yeah! Super-fast A.org response, as ever!
I'll try these two. I'm opening another tab to search for them at HOL...
Thank you!

Get them here:

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=kgwhd&meta=
Go to the first result.

Also look for Sinbad, Yo Joe, Cool Spot, Sleepwalker, Wonderdog and SuperFrog.

They are pretty terribly games, but you may find that the colourful characters in 'Chuck Rock 2' and 'Baby Joe' will appeal to your son.

Cheers,
James

Dear AndrewBell, thank you very much for the ideas and the support. But, I think the posting guidelines says something about piracy, and this link smells like a cave of pirates...
Maybe its time to edit your post and cancel the link before the admin do it for you?
Again, thank you for your help. But piracy it's not a (public) option, at least.

It is my impression that KillerGorilla makes every attempt to keep his site legal. Many of the games are known to be approved for free download, for example, those by Team17. He also refuses to accept donations, and removes games where distribution causes complaints.
