99% of Amiga games never use FPU at all.

Total Chaos AGA uses an FPU if you have one, but only once, the very first time you run the game, to decompress all the audio into Amiga format.  If you have an 060 FPU this takes 6 minutes.  If you have no FPU it takes 1-3 hours.
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA
