Post by: runequester on December 12, 2010, 09:10:44 AM
In the mood for something different. Recommend me a platform game that is not:

Superfrog
Turrican
Deep core
Lethal weapon
Gods
Rodland
Giana sisters
Zool


Any suggestions out there? :)

The New Zealand Story! A truly wonderful game. I also thought the Amiga version of Wonderboy in Monsterland was great, although nobody's ever agreed with me.

There's a 1st time for everything then  :)
Really enjoyed WBIML on the amiga, although my c64 friends used to swear by thier version and mock the Amiga one. I loved (and still do) the c64, but I just couldnt see it with WBIML.

I only love the SEGA Master System version. One of my ten favorites of all time :)

The free game, Koi, that was pretty decent.  I upgraded my OS or hardware and it stopped working, so I never finished it.  I liked the music, too.

Not really a platformer by definition, but ViroCop is also an amazing game, IMHO.

Also, I recall Magic Pockets being quite fun.

P.P. Hammer

Other members have given some terrific suggestions already.
